Roasted Corn & Black Bean Dip

This is a great recipe to share at a summer barbecue.  People just can't get enough of it!!  I'm serving it as an appetizer for my hubby's birthday.

Dressing

1 T. salt
6 T. fresh lime juice
2 T. cider vinegar
3/4 t. cumin
1/3 c. oil

Combine all dressing  ingredients & set aside.

1 - 1lb. pkg. frozen corn, thawed
2-3 T. oil

Toss corn with oil, spread on baking sheet & bake at 450 degrees for 18-22 minutes, til light golden, stirring every 8 minutes.  Cool, then add the following:

1 c. chopped cilantro
2 fresh jalapenos, seeded & chopped finely
2 large avocadoes, diced
1/2 c. chopped red onion
1 red bell pepper, seeded & finely chopped
3/4 c. chopped tomato
2 t. minced garlic
2 -15 oz. cans black beans, rinsed & drained

Combine everything & chill until flavors have a chance to combine.  If desired, may be prepared the night before--just omit cilantro, avocado & dressing until serving time.

Serve with tostito chips.

I'm sharing this with On the Menu Monday at Stonegable.
