Rice, Corn & Black Bean Salad
Rice, Corn & Black Bean Salad, originally uploaded by the boastful baker.
I lifted this recipe straight from the pages of the July 2008 Martha Stewart Living magazine. I even served it as a side dish to some turkey burgers made to Martha’s specifications. Sorry to any Martha Stewart haters…the food looked so good and almost nutritious. I couldn’t resist.
The recipe is here.

I only made 2 slight changes. First, I substituted Lundberg Black & Mahogany Rice for the wild rice. I chose this substition because I could buy twice as much of it for a dollar less than the wild rice. Second, I used bottled key lime juice instead of fresh lime juice…mostly because I had plenty of it in the refrigerator and was too cheap to buy limes.
We really liked this salad…it was light and sort of healthy and a nice change from the side dishes I normally make. I made an altered version of it last week to use as the “meat” for sandwich wraps…but I’ll mention that in a future post.

I bet that would be a great topping to some tacos.
