Ingredients
  • ¼ cup cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons coarse grain mustard
  • 4 teaspoons chopped, fresh parsley
  • ⅔ teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
  • ⅔ teaspoon sea salt
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • ⅔ small red onion, diced
  • 1⅓ cups canned black beans, drained and rinsed
  • ⅔ cup fresh sweet corn kernels, cooked and cooled ( or frozen)
  • ⅔ large red bell pepper, trimmed and diced

Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the vinegar, oil, salt and pepper. Add the onion and black beans.
  2. Cook the corn kernels in a small saucepan of boiling salted water until tender, about 3 minutes. Remove the kernels with a slotted spoon and plunge them into an ice bath to stop the cooking process. Pat dry and add to the onion mixture.
