Black Bean and Corn Salsa

It’s been so long since I made something without sugar! So I thought I would give the sugar and flour a break and share with you one of our families favorite salsa recipe. My aunt would bring this Black Bean and Corn Salsa to every family get together and it was always the first dip to be gone. It’s so simple to make and it’s exploding with flavor. Not only is this salsa great for dipping, it’s also delicious on top of chicken or even a burger.

This Black Bean and Corn Salsa recipe makes a TON, so you can definitely use it as a dip and on top of your grilled food. I also sometimes add some fresh avocado to the top which is also delicious. So with Memorial Day next weekend, this is the perfect salsa to serve at your party!

Black Bean and Corn Salsa

JUST A FEW TIPS:

 âœ” The longer you let this salsa marinate, the better it will taste. I like to leave it overnight, but if your in a rush make sure you let it marinate for at least 4 hours before serving.

 âœ”  Add fresh avocado right before your ready to serve. If you put the avocado on top too soon, I find that the avocados will turn brown and no one wants that!

✔  Serve with tortilla chips or on top of all your favorite grilled foods. ENJOY!
