Southwest Corn Salad
Country Woman


I first saw this recipe in our Omaha, Nebraska paper a few years ago," relates Joanna Lonnecker. "It's ideal for family get-togethers of all kinds. Hearty enough to serve during winter, this salad always brings back memories of summer picnics!"

SERVINGS: 9
CATEGORY: Salads
METHOD:
TIME: Prep: 10 min. + chilling

Ingredients:
3 cups cooked tricolor spiral pasta
1 can (15-1/4 ounces) whole kernel corn, drained
1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
1 large tomato, seeded and chopped
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
1/2 cup olive oil
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon chili powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

Re: Southwest Corn Salad
If you can find them in your produce dept of grocery store, buy Anaheim or Poblano chile's. Take them home & roast them. You can roast on your grill or over a gas burner on a stove. Let the skin blister, a little charring is good. Put in a ziploc, seal, let sit for 30 minutes. Peel skin off, chop chiles and use them in the recipe. This adds a new level of flavor vs. the canned.
