Good to know when making easy Mexican salad.
Drain the juice from the canned corn and red beans before adding them to the salad. It is best to pour these canned vegetables into a sieve or colander and set aside for a while to drain well.
Yellow cheese and pineapple can be purchased either whole or in pieces. If you buy these products whole, you have to cut them yourself.
