I found this recipe for corn and black bean salad on one of those clear produce bags at the store. I strongly dislike cilantro, but we like everything else so I decided to give it a try (minus the cilantro). It was very good. It wasn’t what I expected, but David and both liked it and we will make it again.

What is cilantro?
It’s an herb often found in Mexican recipes but is used in other kinds dishes as well. I really like the flavor as long as it is not too strong.
