Fresh Corn Salsa

Makes 4 cups

Ingredients
3 ears corn, husks and silks removed
1 (15-ounce) can small white beans, drained and rinsed
3 Roma or plum tomatoes, chopped
1 small red onion, diced
2 pickled jalapeno chiles, seeded and finely chopped
1 medium green bell pepper, seeded and finely chopped
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 tablespoons packed cilantro leaves, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Preheat the broiler. Place corn on broiler pan 5 inches from heat, and broil until corn is lightly browned on all sides, turning occasionally, about 3 minutes.

Place the corn in the microwave and cook on high for 2 minutes to cook through. Cool, then slice the kernels off the cob.

Toss the kernels with the remaining ingredients in a large bowl. Cover and chill at least 1 hour before serving.
Serving size: 1/2 cup - 1 point per serving
