Black Bean and Corn Salad with Brown Sugar Salmon
Inspired by many a meal growing up. This healthy and delicious black bean and corn salad is topped with Cedar planked brown sugar salmon.
This meal is perfect for a weekend get together and eating al fresco. Fresh veggies, black beans and plenty of flavors are what Summer cooking is all about and this dish fits perfectly.
While I can’t take credit for the salmon recipe, I am excited to share with you the black beans and corn salad recipe. Family Circle provided the recipe for the salmon and it’s a winner. For serving this dish layer all the salad ingredients in a big bowl. Makes for a lovely presentation. This is a healthy meal you will enjoy sharing.
