Southwestern Bean Salad

I was just reading an acquaintance's knitting blog, and for some reason she had posted a recipe. It sounded pretty tasty, and reading through it I realized I'm pretty sure I have all the listed ingredients at the house. So maybe when I get home tonight I will make it. As yoinked directly from her blog:

Southwestern Bean Salad

1 can black beans
1 can navy beans
1 medium size red pepper, diced
1 meduim size onion, diced (either red or sweet, your call)
1 1/2 cups corn kernels
1 clove garlic, pressed
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp dijon mustard (or to taste)
2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
3 Tbsp olive oil
salt and pepper

Rinse and drain the beans. Mix together the beans, corn, red pepper and onion in a large bowl. In a smaller bowl, stir together the garlic, cumin, olive oil and mustard, and gradually mix in the vinegar until the sauce is creamy. Pour it over the beans and mix well. Season with salt and pepper.


...Now I am hungry. I brought leftover Chinese to eat between work and My Favorite Class Ever OMG Info Tech Is So Interesting. Guess I'll just have to tough it out for the next three hours until dinner time...
