High Fiber, Low Calories, but YUMMY Sidedish

Okay so it's already been two days since I decided to share some of my favorite "light" recipes with you all, sorry, I didn't forget, just been busy rearranging/redecorating and you know how one project can turn into another right?

Anyway..... here's something we have at our house that actually has no name but is one of our very favorites. It's actually a type of salad as it is eaten cold but we use it in place of a main-dish by just adding a few ingredients.

2 cans Green Giant Niblets corn
2 cans Black Beans drained and rinsed well (just so they dont discolor the corn too much)
1/4 cup salsa (we like ours HOT!)
1 T chopped cilantro (optional)
1/4 c very finely chopped red onion
Freshly ground black pepper
Salt if desired (I never need any but you may prefer it)

Basically you just mix everything together and serve. It's very low in calories and high in fiber. Approximate calorie count is 140 calories for 1 cup. Makes approximately 6 cups.

If you want to eat this as a main dish add left over cubed chicken sauted with a little taco seasoning an water, 1 can sliced water chestnuts, and garnish with guacamole, sour cream, and/or grated low-fat cheddar. Obviously this will alter the calorie count but it is very filling and can be warmed slightly if you wish. Add sour cream and guacamole AFTER heating slightly.

Hope you Love it! If you have suggestions for a name post me!
