Summer Black Bean Salad/Salsa

by www.trainermomma.com

3 cans black beans, rinsed and drained
3 cans shoepeg white corn, rinsed and drained
2 cucumbers, chopped
1 green, chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
1 yellow pepper, chopped
1 orange pepper, chopped
1 bunch of cilantro, chopped
1 bunch of green onions, chopped
3-4 tomatoes, chopped
2 large avocados, chopped
Homemade Italian dressing (see recipe here)

Basically, get ready to CHOP, CHOP, CHOP!  Dump it all in a very large bowl and mix with Italian dressing to taste (I used about half of the dressing I mixed up).

Eat as leftovers, add some baked tortilla chips and eat as salsa, pour over baked/grilled chicken or salmon.  This salad is soooo versatile and delicious.  It will be your go-to salad from now on.
