Awesome Summer Salad

This is a great salad recipe to serve with chicken, pork or fish and it can be as easy as opening a few cans from your pantry. John, Don and mom wanted the recipe so here it is:

Black Bean and Hearts of Palm Salad
1 can hearts of palm, drained
1 can black beans rinsed and rinsed and rinsed again, then drain
3 ears of fresh corn (slice the corn off the cob) or 1 can corn rinsed and drain
3 large tomatoes chopped fine
3 stalks green onion chopped
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro (or 2 T. powdered)
1/4 cup olive oil
3 T. lime juice
1 t. corainder

Combine ingredients. Cover and refigerate. This is even better the next day. If at all possible, try to use the fresh cilantro and corn. It is still pretty darned good with canned but really pops with the fresh.
