This recipe was just fair. If you want to make a vegetarian main dish with black beans and corn there are several other recipes on this site that fill this niche better. On the plus side, the recipe is healthy and the leftovers heat well. The dish is hearty enough to be served alone, no side dishes needed.09/28/08
