This is a quick and easy salad to take for packed lunches, etc. Ingredients:
2 cans black beans (about 3-3.5 cups, rinsed and drained) |
2 cans sweet yellow corn (about 3.5 cups, drained) |
2 small cans mandarin oranges (1.5-2 cups, drained) |
1 clove elephant garlic |
1 jalapeno, seeded and finely chopped |
'2 tsp cilantro, finely chopped |
'1 tsp salt |
Directions:
1. Mix all ingredients together.
2. Eat immediately, or chill for later.
3. Some notes: A batch will stay good in the refrigerator for at least one week. The elephant garlic is a little less intense than regular garlic, so using lots of it is no problem, at least for me. Trader Joe's has packs of frozen cilantro, which I find very useful. (I use 2-3 of the little cubes for one batch of this salad) You could leave the seeds in or use more jalapeno for more spice, but I'm happy with it as is.
