A splash of lime juice brightens and binds all the flavors in this salad that's chock-full of good-for-you ingredients and fresh herbs. The perfect potluck dish for summer outings! Jennifer especially likes to use roasted or grilled fresh corn. Jennifer Wickes — Pine Beach, NJ

I love this recipe; it was easy to make and easy to keep in the fridge as a pull out dish on heart summer nights and better after a few days anyway

Delicious. I added some sesame seeds and cucumbers because I wanted to use them up and I tossed everything except the corn and beans in the food processor to make quick work of the chopping. This was delicious.

very yummy. I used frozen grated gingerroot so next time I'll do fresh as I felt the ginger flavor was barely there.

This salad was delicious! It makes a great nutritious lunch. The sesame oil really gives it a nice flavor. I will definitely make again. Next time though, I want to try scallions or a red onion instead of a regular yellow onion.

My husband was disappointed at first when I told him I'd made a different black bean and corn salad than the southwestern one he likes so much....until he tasted this one and now he swears it's his new favorite!

I recently started "clean eating" and when I came across this recipe I knew I had to try it. I didn't cook the corn, just threw it in the bowl frozen. I also had to substitute lemon for lime juice. It's definitely a salad I'll be making again!
