67 Reviews of Black Bean and Corn Salad ( Dip )

by ~Rita~

This recipe is completely WONDERFUL! I take a can of corn and put it under the broiler till it is slightly brown to "grill" it. I sub green onions for red, just a personal preference. Otherwise I follow the recipe exactly. I use thai chili's instead of jalapenos too. This recipe is terrific on it's own or combined with long grained rice cooked with whole cumin, tumeric and chicken broth. Thanks!

    As promised, this had a really nice, fresh taste. Since my kids have the hate-cilantro gene, I omitted that, using basil and Italian parsley. Other than being a little generous with the lime juice, I followed the recipe exactly. Next time, I think I'll cut back on the cumin a tad — but that's just personal taste. This was enjoyed all, Rita. Thanks for sharing!

    THIS IS OUTSTANDING!! BEST ONE POSTED! The flavors are perfect - I serve it with quesadillas. But, it's great with a simple meat dish, too. I can't wait to bring it to my next potluck with chips.

    This is a nice change of pace to serve with tortilla chips. It is also a great side to Texx-Mex dishes. So easy to put together and it keeps well!

    Excellent dish, though I could see adding only 1 tsp. cumin next time, I really liked the extra jalapeno. Made it with only 1 tablespoon of oil and a mixture of fresh cilantro and basil (the latter a personal favorite of mine). Also, since I can't grill anything on my balcony (city ordinance), I roasted two very sweet New Jersey ears of corn in my oven (so sweet I did not add extra sugar to salad). The tomato was just as ripe and fresh. Served with baked blue and white tortilla chips. Really, the textures (crunchy and soft) and taste (sweet, sour and a bit salty) in this salad are not to be missed! Thanks again Rita!

    I made this to go with salmon patties tonight and it was very good! My husband really liked it and I will be making this again. Tomorrow I will take the remaining salad to a potluck for a lady who is moving in our art class. Thanks so much!

    I have made this recipe many times now and keep forgetting to review it. It is super yummy! I have only used fresh parsley so far and it is really good that way. Can't wait until the spring to try it with some fresh cilantro.
