Ingredients
1 bag (16 ounces) coleslaw mix
1 can (15 ounces) black beans, rinsed and drained
1 ½ cups canned corn kernels, drained
1 medium jalapeño pepper, seeded and finely diced
1 small red bell pepper, seeded and finely diced
3 green onions, finely sliced
¼ cup fresh cilantro, finely chopped
1 tablespoon taco seasoning
½ teaspoon ground cumin
1 bag (9.75 ounces) Chili Cheese Fritos, reserving a handful for topping
½ cup sour cream
½ cup mayonnaise
¼ cup fresh lime juice, about 2 limes
2 tablespoons chipotle sauce from a can of chipotles in adobo
Instructions
In a large bowl, add coleslaw mix, black beans, corn, jalapeño, red bell pepper, green onions, cilantro, taco seasoning, and cumin. Toss until evenly combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together sour cream, mayonnaise, lime juice, and chipotle sauce until smooth.
When ready to serve, pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss gently to coat.
Add all but a handful of Chili Cheese Fritos and gently stir.
Top with the reserved Fritos just before serving.
Serve immediately for the best crunch.
Notes
For the crunchiest texture, add the Fritos and dressing right before serving.
For less heat, reduce the chipotle sauce or omit the jalapeño.
This salad is best served fresh, as the Fritos will soften over time.
