Black Bean and Corn Salad!
This Black Bean and Corn Salad is delicious and refreshing! It makes a perfect summer meal and is one of my favourite go-to dinners throughout the summer months. The best part about this salad is its versatility. It is great served on its own, but it is even more delicious served over a bed of greens, paired with brown rice, topped with guacamole or avocado chunks, drizzled with spicy vegan nacho cheese sauce, or served with mango salsa. The combinations are endless and make this meal delicious and exciting each and every time.
This meal is packed with tons of plant-based protein and fiber. It is loaded with vegetables and is a super satisfying meal. Serving it with avocado adds lots of healthy fats, and pairing it with brown rice adds complete carbohydrates. It’s great enjoyed all summer long!
