Vegan, Glutn Free, Raw Summer Salad
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups black beans (canned is fine)
- 1 1/2 cups sweet corn (canned or frozen is fine)
- 1 red tomato
- 3 green onions
- 1 bell pepper (any color)
- 1 lime
- 1 avocado
- Fresh Cilantro
- Cayenne Pepper
Instructions
Rinse and drain the beans if you’re using canned. Place them in a large bowl.
Add in the sweet corn.
Chop up the tomatoes, onion, and bell pepper into small chunks and start dumping them into a bowl with the beans and corn.
Slice your lime in half.
Squeeze the juice over the salad.
Slice the avocado just before serving and add to the bowl. Sprinkle with cilantro.
Gather your ingredients…
It looks delicious when it’s all combined!
Easy, delicious, healthy, and refreshing.
You can serve this with chips, tortillas, or with just a fork! It makes a pretty big bowl, so if you’re serving it as a dip, I’d say it serves 10-12. If you’re using it as a main dish (like me) I’d guess it serves 2-4 hungry people. 🙂
What’s your favorite summer salad recipe? Any special ingredients you like to use? I’m LOVING avocado on my salads these days. So creamy and delicious!

Oh, YUM!! This one is totally up my alley and a little different then the salad I’ve been eating the past two weeks. http://www.easytobeglutenfree.com/salads-and-salsas/185-black-bean-salad-with-lime-dressing
looking forward to trying yours next week. 🙂
Oh this salad looks so good! Thanks so much for the recipe. I may just have to make it today!!
This is the perfect summer salad! I’ve made something similar and loved it 🙂
That is my quintessential summer salad. Except, I douse mine in salsa. And I’m not judging you for boxed cupcakes, just for wasting money on the special funfetti mix when you can just mix in your own sprinkles. Then you would have had funnerfetti cupcakes, because saving money on your grocery bill is oh so fun for everyone.
(And yup, I did just say a dorky rhyme. Feel free to judge me for it.)
O-M-G that salad looks soooo flipping good!!! Definitely ready for summer now!!!
i am loving avocado too!! why does it taste SO good! i’m def making this 🙂 it screams summer to me!
oh yum yum! i am totally making this salad. it has so many of my favorites! 🙂
What a lovely salad! It kinda looks like funfetti, in a way. 😉 Cilantro is my favourite herb…everything tastes fun and exciting with a bit of cilantro thrown in.
I feel like people either love or hate cilantro!!! I love it 🙂
Holy yum! I love salads with beans and corn, so Mexicanish 😀
this sounds SO FRESH!! LOVEEE the avocado!
