Makes about 4 servings

Ingredients:

• 3 cups ripe cherry or grape tomatoes
• 5 green onions
• a bunch of fresh cilantro leaves
• 1 red chili, seeded and diced
• 2 sweet corn on cobb
• 1 (15 oz) can black beans, drained and rinsed well
• 2-3 fresh garlic cloves, minced
• 1 fresh lime, juiced
• 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
• sea salt and ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions:

Finely chop your green onions, quarter your tomatoes, seed and mince the red chili, and chop the fresh cilantro leaves.

Carefully cut the corn from the cobs. When the corn is fresh and super tender, there is no need to cook. Alternatively, you may choose to dunk your corn cobs in salted boiling water for just 2 or 3 minutes.

Add all of your prepped ingredients into a large bowl together with the black beans.

Add in garlic, freshly squeezed lime juice, and extra virgin olive oil.

Season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to your taste.

Toss gently to combine, then serve.
