Black Bean, Corn, and Tomato Salad with Feta Cheese Recipe

Recipesfull introduces to you: Popular Recipes. (Black Bean, Corn, and Tomato Salad with Feta Cheese Recipe). I tasted many salads with similar ingredients, but all seemed very bland, so I developed this myself. It is dressed with a lime vinaigrette and has lots of crunch and flavor with a little jalapeno pop. It's wonderful to make in summer with fresh ingredients from the garden or farmer's market. This is great with BBQ's or for potlucks. My husband likes it best with fish tacos.
