Mexican Salad

I made this for a friend's barbeque and it was a huge hit. I served it as a salsa-type dip wtih tortilla chips. It's super simple. My advice is to make it the night before so the flavors have time to meld. Makes 6 servings.

INGREDIENTS
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained
2 cups frozen corn kernels
1/2 onion, finely diced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced (optional)
1 red bell pepper, diced
1/4 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
salt to taste
1/2 teaspoon honey

DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl, combine the black beans, garbanzo beans, corn, onion, cilantro, jalapenos, bell pepper, olive oil, lime juice, pepper, salt and honey. Mix well; refrigerate and allow flavors to blend.
