Michelle's New England Bean Salad

I LOVE Texas Caviar.  It's got everything I like in it...jalapenos, peppers, beans, garlic, etc.  However, there are a ton of ingredients that are not really needed to suite my families taste.  So I have tweaked the recipe and actually made it easier and cheaper while doing so.  Enjoy!

1 can of black beans
1 can of either cannellini beans or pinto beans
1 can of sweet yellow or white corn
1 diced red bell pepper
1/2 diced red onion
1/3 of a bunch of fresh cilantro chopped
1/3 cup of apple cider vinegar
2 Tbsps. of sugar
1 Tsp. of garlic powder

1. Pour the cans of beans in a colander and run cold water over it to rinse off the beans. 
2. Add the corn to the colander to drain the liquid from the can. 
3. Transfer the beans and the corn to a medium sized mixing bowl. 
4. Add the red bell pepper, red onion and cilantro to the bowl as well. 
5. In a small sauce pan combine the apple cider vinegar, sugar and garlic powder.  Heat the mixture up until the sugar looks dissolved(about 2-3 minutes) and let cool. 
6. Pour the mixture over the rest of the ingredients in the bowl and toss.  Sprinkle some salt for your liking if you would like.  That's it!
