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!
