If you like mexican type food - my current favorite salad is
1 can Garbanzo Beans (Rinsed) - I use Westbrae Organics and there really is a differance
1 can Black Beans (Rinsed really well) - Same Comment on Westbrae
1 box, bag, or cooked fresh corn
1 pint of Store bought Salsa Fresca (Drained) - From the Deli Case, try to find a salsa that has chopped not crushed tomatoes - it will be prettier and better texture.
Mix it all up, serve room temp or chilled in a pretty bowl. It is a very festive dish for potlucks. Add cooked couscous, cucumbers and a little olive oil for something more filling. Vary the "heat" with whatever salsa you choose.
This is about the easiest recipe ever. I make it often and use it on tacos, taco salads, as a side dish, for lunch, etc.

Reason: Senior moment - change Pinto Beans to Garbanzo.
