Black Bean Corn Salad (with Marinated Beans)
  1. Roast Sweet Potatoes: Heat oven to 425°F (220°C). Peel, dice, and toss 1½ pounds sweet potatoes with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast 25–30 minutes, flipping once, until caramelized and tender. For a quicker option, roast them in the air fryer at 400°F for 15–18 minutes, shaking halfway.

  2. Make Dressing: In a large mixing bowl, add 1 cup fresh cilantro (finely chopped), 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, 4 tablespoons lime juice, 1½ tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, and ½ teaspoon salt Whisk well to combine.

  3. Marinate Beans: Drain and rinse 1 can black beans, then toss in dressing. Let sit while potatoes roast.Optional: warm beans in microwave 15–30 seconds before tossing for max flavor.

  4. Add Veggies: To the same bowl, add 1 cup corn, 1 cup green bell pepper (diced), ½ red onion (choped), ¼ cup pickled jalapeños, 4 ounces feta cheese (crumbled), and the roasted sweet potatoes.

  5. Toss & Serve: Toss gently, adjust seasoning, and serve right away or chill 30–60 minutes. Great for meal prep—just stir before serving and brighten with extra lime.
