This is a nice salad to serve outdoors, with grilled turkey or chicken. I got this recipe from a friend. Ingredients:

1 large red bell pepper, seeded and finely chopped |
2 small fresh jalapeno chiles, seeded and finely chopped |
1/2 firmly packed chopped cilantro |
1/4 cup lime juice |
2 tablespoons salad oil |
salt and pepper |
lettuce leaf |
lime wedge |
fresh cilantro stem |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine beans, corn, bell pepper, chiles, chopped cilantro, lime juice and oil; mix lightly.
2. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
3. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to a day.
4. To serve, line a serving bowl with lettuce leaves; spoon in bean mixture.
5. Garnish with lime wedges and cilantro sprigs.
