It&#8217;s a marinated salad wherein fresh ingredients and a couple of canned staples hang out in the fridge in a dressing. Whereas other salads wilt or get soggy if dressed ahead of time, this salad improves with some time in the fridge for the flavors to get to know one another. It&#8217;s a winning attribute that makes this black bean salad a dish I return to over and over as a hero for summer get-togethers and picnics and also as a make-ahead lunch.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Black Bean Salad Ingredients<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2026424\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Black-Bean-Salad_TOHD24_21127_JuliaHartbeck_1.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Ingredients for Black Bean Salad \" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Julia Hartbeck for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Corn: <\/strong>Corn adds sweet flavor and an appealing bright yellow color to this salad. The recipe calls for drained canned whole-kernel corn, but you can also use frozen or fire-roasted corn once defrosted.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Black beans:<\/strong> Raid the pantry for this centerpiece ingredient, which bulks up this salad with fiber and protein. Drained and rinsed canned beans require no effort at all, but you can also <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-quick-soak-dried-beans\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-quick-soak-dried-beans\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">cook beans from dry<\/a> and use them instead.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Sweet red pepper:<\/strong> Chopped red pepper adds bright color and sweet crunch against the beans&#8217; soft texture.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Tomato:<\/strong> This is a must for all summer salads. You can use any color tomato you like, chopped, but do take the time to seed it; otherwise, it contributes too much moisture.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Green onions:<\/strong> Chopped green onions bring freshness and bright onion flavor to the salad.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Red onion:<\/strong> Chopped red onions pungency is tempered as it sits in the citrus and vinegar in the dressing, but it still has a pleasant piquancy in this salad, a contribution as welcome as its purple hue.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Jalape\u00f1o pepper:<\/strong> Seeded and chopped, fresh jalape\u00f1o remains slightly spicy, but seeding it first mitigates the heat. Feel free to leave the seeds in if you don&#8217;t mind some spice!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Garlic: <\/strong>A single clove of minced garlic contributes a big flavor. If you like, grate it in with a microplane to avoid bits of garlic.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Italian salad dressing: <\/strong>This black bean salad marinade is a homemade and store-bought hybrid. It calls for bottled Italian dressing, which is seasoned with garlic and oregano, as a base.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cilantro: <\/strong>Minced fresh cilantro adds that quintessential southwestern flavor to this bean salad, but if you&#8217;re not a fan, you can add additional green onion instead.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lime or lemon juice: <\/strong>The acid in fresh citrus juice softens the vegetables and soaks into the beans, which helps carry the other flavors of garlic and chili throughout the salad.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hot sauce: <\/strong>While this salad isn&#8217;t terribly hot, a splash of bottled hot sauce adds some dimension to the abundant veggies. Feel free to add more or leave it out to suit your preferences.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chili powder:<\/strong> Store-bought chili powder is typically a spice blend that contains some dehydrated and garlic in addition to pulverized chile peppers. It&#8217;s an easy way of adding seasoning and a little heat to the salad dressing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Directions\u202f<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Combine all salad ingredients and marinate<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2026425\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Black-Bean-Salad_TOHD24_21127_JuliaHartbeck_2.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Combining the black bean salad ingredients in a large bowl\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Julia Hartbeck for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Combine corn, black beans, sweet red pepper, tomato, green onions, red onion, jalape\u00f1o pepper and garlic in a large bowl.

Some amount of this moisture transfer is unavoidable. This is why we recommend serving this salad with a slotted spoon so you can let excess dressing fall away as you serve it.\u00a0 One thing you can do to mitigate this is to remove the seeds from your tomato and make sure your beans and corn are well drained after rinsing them.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Can I substitute a different kind of canned beans?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>You certainly can. This salad would be equally striking with cannellini beans or if you&#8217;re doubling the recipe, use one can each black and white beans.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Can you make black bean salad using fresh corn instead of canned?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Yes. Plan on two to three ears of corn, depending on their size, to replace one can of whole kernel corn. You can boil, steam or\u00a0 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-cook-corn-on-the-cob-in-the-microwave\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-cook-corn-on-the-cob-in-the-microwave\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">microwave the corn<\/a> to par-cook it.
