Corn and black bean salad

This is my own recipe, based on many different ones I have read. I just eye ball everything and mix it up, so the measurements are quite accurate. It's a bit different every time.

one can black beans drained
about 2 cups corn (if using frozen, I defrost in microwave, then drain. Fresh corn is so much better)
diced bell pepper- red, green or both
diced red onion
chopped cilantro (most important)

for the marinade I mix together-

olive oil
red wine vinegar (or apple cidar vinegar)
some fresh lime juice if I have it
sea salt
chili powder
garlic powder


Mix everything together~
I serve it cold
