Directions

My family loves this salsa, especially during the summertime. It’s really simple to make and perfect for potlucks. You can even enjoy it as a salad—just add some chopped romaine or iceberg lettuce. Use the structured ingredient and direction fields below for cooking. The recipe source is Delights of Culinaria.

  • Step 1

    Drain the corn. Rinse and drain the black beans. Finely chop the red onion, tomatoes, green onions, and fresh cilantro.

  • Step 2

    In a large bowl, combine the corn, black beans, finely chopped red onion, chopped tomatoes, green onions, and cilantro.

  • Step 3

    Add the extra-light olive oil, fresh lime juice, ground cumin, and optional cayenne pepper. Season with salt and black pepper to taste, then toss until everything is evenly combined.

  • Step 4

    Halve, pit, and peel the avocados, then dice them. Gently fold the diced avocado into the salsa so it keeps its shape.

  • Step 5

    Serve the Black Bean Salsa fresh with tortilla chips.
