My daughter hates her vegetables and getting her to eat a variety is a big challenge. When I found this recipe, I was literally over the moon because she loved it and ate her veggies willingly. Bonus, she asked for it again. This salad is a quick and easy receipe adapted from the Black Bean and Corn Salad by Love and lemons. This is a wonderful salad to serve on a hot day or with BBQ.
We recently served this dish at a BBQ and guest have commented about how they love the flavours and asked for a recipe. So this is one of the reasons why I set up a blog. I need to store my recipes before I forget about them and can't recreate the yummiest of it anymore!
Feel free to adjust the recipe to your liking or omit stuff like Coriander, if it's one of your most hated herb.
Ingredients:
- 380g - Cooked whole corn kernel
- 230g - Cooked black beans

Nachos - to serve with dish
Procedure:
