Black Bean and Corn Salad

1 can black beans rinsed well

1 can corn rinsed and drained

1/2 red onion

1 whole red bell pepper

1/2 cup of mayo (reduced fat/homemade/olive oil based)

1/2 bag  of Chili Frito's

Mix the first 5 ingredients and chill.  When you are ready to serve, take approx. 1/2 bag of Frito's and crush them into bite sized pieces.  mix in with the salad.  Serve immediately.  IT IS INCREDIBLE!!!!  It can be addictive so be warned!!! 

Additions-  Stir in grilled chicken or sliced grilled steak and serve over shredded lettuce. 

You can also add more black beans and more corn if you like as well or if you are taking to a party.  You can also use less mayo or even Fat Free if you prefer.   

Have an incredible Super Bowl Weekend!!!!!  Enjoy!!!!!!
