Bean Recipe - Black Bean and Corn Salad

Omg, a recipe!

I know, I usually don't post these because I tend to not eat recipe food anymore (too many food sensitivities). My typical meal is a piece of meat with a 1/2 cup of beans on the side and maybe some kind of roasted veggie. But, I've been a bit braver lately and dipped my toe into the recipe world again. My mom made this awesome Black Bean and Corn Salad as a side dish for Thanksgiving this year. I loved it (it tastes even better after a day or two). So, I thought I'd share it with you all as well. And, if you really need some delicious bean recipes, I always recommend Unique Hammond's blog. Her carrot muffins are the chronic. 

Adjust this bean salad however you like. Too corny? Use less corn. Not into tomatoes? Leave them out. Gotta have more lime? Add more lime. It's your world.
