A vibrant and flavorful salad featuring black beans, corn, and a zesty lime dressing.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the lime juice, ground cumin, chili powder, and olive oil until well combined.
Ensure the dressing is well emulsified for even flavor distribution.
In a large bowl, combine the black beans, corn, red bell pepper, green onion, and cilantro.
Drain and rinse the beans and corn to remove excess sodium and improve texture.
Pour the dressing over the salad ingredients and toss gently to coat.
Toss the salad just before serving to keep it fresh and vibrant.
Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Chilling the salad enhances the flavor and texture.
Serve the salad chilled as a side dish or light meal.
Garnish with additional cilantro or a lime wedge for presentation.
