Ingredients
  

  • 1 can black beans drained & rinsed
  • 1 can sweetcorn drained
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • 1 red pepper diced
  • 1/2 red onion finely diced
  • 1 avocado cubed
  • fresh coriander chopped
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • salt to taste
  • pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Combine black beans, sweetcorn, cherry tomatoes, red pepper, and red onion in a large bowl.
  2. Whisk olive oil, lime juice, honey, cumin, salt, and pepper until combined.
  3. Pour dressing over the mixture and toss well to coat.
  4. Add avocado and fresh coriander, then toss gently to keep avocado intact.

Notes

Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3–4 days, though avocado is best added fresh. Serve with tortilla chips or alongside a simple meal like grilled meats or rice.
