Beef and Chorizo Chili

Beef and Chorizo Chili

Anyone who follows me on Instagram knows that I participated in a charity chili cookoff last weekend.

There are a few really great things about this Spicy Black Bean and Corn Salad! First of all, it’s insanely easy to make so you don’t have to worry about standing in front of the stove.
