-------------------------------------- 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.
Happy Cooking!
* 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.
Tip From Chef Bek: 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.
Happy Eating!
