ingredients
- 1 (16 ounce) can black beans, rinsed
- 1 1⁄2 cups frozen corn, thawed
- 1 roma tomato
- 1⁄2 cup fresh spinach leaves
- 2 tablespoons fresh basil, chopped finely
- 1⁄4 cup red onion
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
- 1⁄2 teaspoon sugar
- 1⁄2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 1⁄4 cup feta cheese
directions
- Measure the corn into a microwave safe bowl. Microwave on high for 30-40 seconds. Stir, then set aside until ready to use.
- Rinse and drain the black beans.
- Dice the tomato and onion.
- Finely chop the spinach leaves and basil-I use my kitchen shears to snip these up.
- Fold together the black beans,corn, tomato, onion, spinach and basil.
- Whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, sugar, pepper, salt and red pepper flakes. Pour over the bean and vegetable mixture. Mix gently.
- This is best if allowed to marinate in the refrigerator for several hours, but it's still delicious if you're in a hurry and need to serve immediately.
- Just before serving, crumble the feta cheese and sprinkle over the top.
