Corn Salsa
1 can black beans (drained and rinsed)
1 can corn (drained)
1 can diced tomatoes with green chilies
1/4 c. chopped green or red pepper
1/4 c. chopped onion
Juice from 1 lime
1/4 c. chopped cilantro
1 avocado
Combine all ingredients except the avocado. Add salt and pepper to taste. Let sit at least 1 hour before serving. Add the avocado right before serving.
This is a very versatile recipe. If you don't like black beans, use sliced black olives instead. If you like it spicier, add a finely diced jalapeno. Lots of fresh tomatoes on hand? Use diced fresh tomatoes in place of the canned tomatoes.
Thanks Nancy J. for the excellent recipe!
