So glad I'm not the only one who has freezer "discovery" moments. Corn and black bean salad - oh yes. Gorgeous colors. I'd draw the line at the limas, though. I was overfed them as a child.
Can of black beans. (well drained and rinsed). The corn..seasoned and or roasted.
That's the base: From there.
Lime, olive oil. Cumin..a must. Salt pepper. A touch of parika (optional).
Then other additions: green onions chopped, spring onions, Cilantro chopped, Parsley (for Cilantro haters).
Lime and black beans work very well corn in a chilled salad dish. Use that as a base. Then explore additions.
If you like sometihng sweet, I made this the other night and everyone loved it. http://www.freshsupersweetcorn.com/recipes/fresh-sweet-corn-dessert-pudding/ It isn't a savory corn pudding, and the macerated strawberries are a nice touch.
