Dressing Ingredients

2 limes juiced
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt to taste
1 tbsp honey
Black pepper to taste

Cowboy Caviar

15 ounces canned black beans rinsed and drained
15 ounces canned corn drained
1 red bell pepper diced
1 jalapeño pepper seeded and minced
1 small red onion diced
2 tomatoes large; seeded and diced
1 bunch cilantro finely chopped
2 ripe but firm avocados diced

Instructions

To a small jar, add all the dressing ingredients and vigorously shake to emulsify.
Start by cutting the veggies into small cubes and finely chop the cilantro. Add them to a large salad bowl.
Pour the dressing over the veggies and toss well to combine.
Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

You can use maple syrup instead of honey.
If making this dish in advance, omit the avocado until ready to serve.
Feel free to use frozen or fresh corn kernels instead of canned corn.
Use any type of bean you would like.
Omit the cilantro if you'd like.
Skip the jalapeño if you'd prefer this to be a bit milder.
