Black Beans and Corn Salad

This easy recipe for black beans and corn salad is the perfect summer side dish! It's a zesty cold salad that you can make ahead. The vegan recipe is full of colorful veggies with a lime dressing.

I love to serve this recipe as a side dish or with chips as a dip. Either way it is a delicious hit at gatherings! When serving it as a dip I like to use round gluten free corn tortilla chips. It is so refreshing on a hot day!

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between black beans and corn salad and salsa?

There is very little difference between this black beans and corn salad and a fresh black bean salsa. I love to eat this recipe on it's own as a salad side dish or as a dip with gluten free corn tortilla chips.

How long does this salad last in the fridge?

This salad will last in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. I love to make it the day before I want to serve the salad or as a dip with tortilla chips. Making it the day before ensures it's really cold when you serve it and the flavors have time to meld together.
