Spicy Black Bean Corn Salad

Spicy Black Bean Corn Salad

I love corn in the summer, but I quickly get bored with simple corn on the cob.  This spicy salad is full of flavors and loaded with veggies and black beans to add protein to the mix.

1 can 14 ounce reduced sodium black beans drained and rinsed

Corn cut off 2 cobs

2 teaspoons hot sauce (or Buffalo sauce)
