Southwest Black Bean Salad

From the Kitchen of: Paz

2	cans	Black beans
2-3	cups	Cooked frozen corn
6-10	cloves	Garlic (depending on how much you love garlic)
2		Bell peppers (one red one green looks festive)
1/2	cup	Olive oil
1/2	cup	Fresh squeezed lime juice
2-3	tsp	Whole cumin seeds or 1 to 1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2	cup	Minced cilantro
1/2	cup	Minced parsley (optional)
1/2	cup	Minced red onion (optional)
		Crushed red pepper to taste
		Black pepper and salt to taste

Mix it all together. Place in refrigerator. It tastes best if it sits for a few hours and the flavors really blend if it sits in refrigerator overnight.
