Toss a 15-ounce can of black beans, 1 1/2 cups each diced cucumber and halved grape tomatoes, 4 chopped scallions, a squeeze of lime juice and some chopped cilantro in a bowl.

ROASTED CORN AND BEAN SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Rub the corn with 1 tablespoon canola oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the corn on the grill and cook until lightly charred in spots and the corn is warmed through, 10 to12 minutes. Remove from the heat and, when cool enough to handle, cut the kernels from the cob. Reserve 1 ear of corn for another use, such as Round 2 Recipe Silver Dollar Corn Fritters.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the cider vinegar, garlic, cayenne pepper and remaining canola oil. Add the beans and onions, and toss to coat. Reserve 1 cup bean mixture for another use, such as Round 2 Recipe Silver Dollar Corn Fritters.

In a small saute pan over medium heat, add the butter and sugar and stir until the butter is melted. Add the pecans and toss until the pecans begin to brown. Stir in the rosemary and cayenne and stir just a few seconds to release the aroma. Remove from the heat and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Sprinkle the pecans on the salad while still warm. Drizzle the dressing over salad and serve.
• In a small bowl, add all the ingredients and whisk until emulsified.
