This delicious and healthy recipe was quickly made and presented during the 2015 Authenticity Professional Women’s Retreat. The flavors are distinct and has a very fresh taste. There were so many women asking me to share this recipe.

Black Bean, Corn & Edamame Salad

• 1 can black beans
• 1/2 cup frozen corn
• 1/2 cup frozen shelled edamame
• 1/4 cup diced sweet onion
• 1/2 cup chopped celery
• 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
• 3/4 tsp cumin
• 1/4 tsp salt

*Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and gently stir. The frozen corn and edamame gives the salad a quick chill and only takes approximately 15 minutes to thaw.
*Prepare salad dressing below and gently mix through to coat the ingredients to your liking. I used about 1/4 cup of dressing. Lime Vinaigrette Dressing

• 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 3 cloves crushed fresh garlic
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/8 tsp ground black pepper
• 1/4 tsp cumin

*Mix ingredients in a bottle and shake well before serving. Refrigerate any remaining dressing and salad.
*Makes 4-6 Servings* Fresh Avocado sliced on top would highly compliment this side dish as well.
* Serve with fresh celery sticks or Tostito chips

…enjoy!
