    I mix with brown rice and salsa and eat it with tortilla chips!

    If you're daring enough, add a little cheese to the top ;-)

    Toss them with tomato, avocado, sea salt and cilantro. Maybe some chopped chilis as well.

    Similar to ^^. I also like to make them into a breakfast burrito with tomatoes, a bit of avocado, salsa and eggs. If you're feeling fiesty, maybe a little whipped cream cheese and jalapenos. ;D

    can of black beans
    can of corn
    cup or cup and a half of salsa
    add franks hot sauce if you want more heat

    Heat up on stove, makes a good side or like a filler for buritto or chicken taco salad. I make chicken enchiladas and put this in with meat, there is enough left over to have as a side. I love it :)
