Black Bean Mango Salad

For the last kitchen of the season, the South Arm Seniors’ Kitchen decided to have a BBQ theme. Unfortunately, the weather was not as warm as desired, so, we prepared the food indoor instead of an outdoor BBQ.

The first recipe is a Black Bean Mango Salad. The twist to this pretty common salad is the use of BBQ sauce as dressing. It seemed to be a weird combination but it turned out really great.

Ingredients

  • 1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 1/3 cups Peaches & Cream corn (we used frozen corn)
  • 1/2 yellow peppers, diced
  • 3 green onions, sliced
  • 1 ripe mango, diced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/3 cup barbecue sauce (spicy preferred)
  • 1 lime, juiced
