Things To Grab

- Whisk
- Small bowl
- Medium cast iron skillet
- Silicone pastry brush
Directions
- Preheat grill for direct cooking to medium-high heat.

In a medium cast iron skillet, combine beans, salsa and cumin. Place skillet over heat; cook on uncovered grill until mixture bubbles, about 5 minutes. Stir in corn; cook until heated through and no excess liquid remains.
