Ingredients

  • 4 cups frozen corn, thawed if using can corn, drain liquid and reseve it.
  • 2 cups frozen edamame. thawed
  • 1 large red pepper, seeded and cut into small pieces
  • 1 large can black beans, well-drained or kidney beans
  • 1 small shallot, diced
  • 1 clove garlic chopped
  • 1-2 tbsp. canola or vegetable oil
  • 2 tbsp. fresh parsley or basil

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, on low to medium heat, saute the shallot and garlic. Stir often to prevent overcooking. Add the red peppers and cook until slightly softened. Add the corn, edamame and the black beans. If more liquid or oil is needed you can add some of the reserved liquid from the canned corn.
  2. Do not drown the veggies in too much oil. The canned veggies are already cooked so just heat all for a few minutes. Remove from heat and serve.
