Cooking Red Corn

On a recent trip to the grocery store I bought some bicoloured corn, something new to try cooking. Since the weather was so unsettled today, and I had the irrational weather theory that if I set up the BBQ it would immediately start to rain, I opted to roast the corn in the oven. One of my favourite spring/summer salads is a black bean mixture that I thought would go great with the roasted corn. A new camera has inspired me to take photos of almost everything, and a friend's food pictures of her culinary adventures are always so wonderful, that I had to try a food blog entry. Here are the pics from our nice dinner of roasted corn and black bean salad.

 Yum! And I have enough salad left over to stuff into taco shells with extra salsa tomorrow for a quick supper prior to heading out for trivia night. Wish I could post this in taste-o-vision because black bean salad is scrumptious.
