Rinse and drain the canned black beans and sweet corn kernels thoroughly to remove excess salt or preservatives. Set aside.
Dice the cherry tomatoes into small, bite-sized pieces. Finely chop the red onion, jalapeño (remove the seeds for less heat), and fresh cilantro.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the black beans, corn, cherry tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño, and cilantro.
Zest and juice the lime into a small bowl. Add the olive oil, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper, whisking to blend smoothly.
Pour the lime dressing over the black bean and corn mixture. Toss gently to combine, ensuring everything is evenly coated.
Cover the dip and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. For best results, let it sit for up to an hour.
Serve chilled with tortilla chips, pita bread, or veggie sticks. Enjoy!
