Directions

Step 1:  Cut up all the sausages into bite size pieces and microwave until warm. ( time will depend on your microwave 3 minutes works on mine.)

Step 2:  Empty a bag of fiesta corn into a bowl and microwave, add the sausage to the bowl.

Step 3:  Add the diced onion to the bowl, and a bunch of the fresh cilantro. ( The Trader Joe’s brand is pre washed in a package so it is ready to add, if you buy bulk from another grocer make sure to wash and dry)

Step 4:  Drain and rinse your black beans, and add to the salad.  Mix through.

Step 5:  Enjoy!
