Steps:

• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush corn with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Grill corn until tender and brown in spots, turning occasionally, about 10 minutes. Cool slightly. Cut off corn kernels; place in large bowl. Add black beans, jicama, carrots, green onions, cilantro, and basil.

BLACK BEAN JICAMA SALAD

Steps:

• If using canned beans; rinse under cold water well. If using fresh you will need to cook them until tender. I use the canned, it's much easier.
• Dice all veggies except your jalapeno and set aside (don't dice them too fine, you'll still want to have a nice bite to them - Think same consistency as Salsa) Slice your jalapeno into thin round slices (use your judgement on these, less is more but if you're a lover of spicey food go for it!).
• Place all your ingredients in a bowl, mix well, salt and pepper to taste and cover. Chill for 2 hours or overnight.
• Serve next to grilled or broiled meat.
