CORN & BLACK BEAN SALAD

When the kids were little John traveled to UT on a business trip and stayed with the family of a co-worker. His wife made this for dinner and John loved it! He brought home the recipe for us to make. I would take it out, look at it and remember that John said it was so good. Then I'd put it back, unsure I would like it. About 5 years later I decided to give it a try. It's Delicious!!

2 Large Tomatoes, diced
1 C Corn
1 Can Black Beans, rinsed
1 Small Onion, diced
1 Jalapeno Pepper, diced
1 Bunch Cilantro, Chopped
1 Lime, Juiced
1 1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Pepper

Toss in a bowl and serve.
You can add a can of tomatoes if you don't have fresh tomatoes, or to make it more salsa like.
