Black Bean Corn Salsa Recipe

Salsa does just not have to be served with the traditional tortilla chips anymore. This black bean corn salsa is a great addition to any meal, or dish. Best of all, it is a fat-free and low calorie accompaniment.

1 can black beans - drained and washed
1 can corn - drained
1/2 cup diced red onion
1/4 cup diced jalapenos
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
2 large tomatoes - diced
2 cloves garlic - chopped
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Wash all your veggies, drain all your canned goods, and cut as described. Combine all into a plastic or glass container.

Chill in the refrigerator at least 8 hours, or overnight, before serving.

Chef's Tip:

- Do not use a metal container to store the salsa. The acids in the lime juice and tomatoes will have a reaction with the metal.

Serving Suggestions:

- Serve with warm tortilla chips.
- Serve as a sauce for fresh fish.
- Wrap in a warm tortilla with chicken, sliced avocado, and lettuce.
- Place inside a breakfast omelet.
- Add to a bed of mixed greens with some crushed tortilla chips.
