Easy Mexi-Corn

 This is like the Mexi-corn you can buy in a can but made with fresh ingredients.  I had some left-over onion, jalapeno pepper, and red bell pepper in my refrigerator as well as a bag of steamable corn in the freezer, so I decided to throw this together.

Ingredients:
*1 bag frozen corn steamer bag
*1/2 jalapeno pepper, seeded, and finely chopped
*1/4 of a yellow onion, finely chopped
*1/4 of a red bell pepper, finely chopped
*olive oil
*dash of salt

Directions:
Saute jalapeno, onion, and bell pepper in a small amount of olive oil until just tender.

Meanwhile, microwave steamer bag of corn according to package directions.

Pour cooked corn into a serving bowl.  Stir in sauteed vegetables.  Add a dash of salt.
