That shrimp wrapped in bacon is reeeeeally good!

I'm starving too! Better go grab some grub before I go looking for recipes.

Well all this talking about cookouts had me thinking about my black bean salad. I love this and I make it quite a bit during the summertime.
Dressing:
1-2 Tbs olive oil
1 Tbs Red wine Vinegar
Juice from 2-3 limes
Salt and Fresh Ground Pepper

Salad:
2 15 oz cans of black beans (make sure you drain them)
1/3 c chopped cilantro
1 small red onion, chop this course
1 small pkg of frozen corn (or about 3 cooked fresh ears)
2 Avacados, peel, pit and chop these

Wisk all of the ingredients for the dressing. Comine all of the salad ingredients in another bowl, mix those together and then toss in the dressing. If you need to wait to serve this, put the pits from the avacado in with the salad to keep from turning brown.

I play with this recipe endlessly. DH likes it with some diced jalapenos in there, I like it with a bit of cumin and a lot of lime sprinkled in.
