BLACK BEAN AVOCADO SALSA



Black Bean Avocado Salsa image

This has to be my favorite summer salsa. It's colorful and fresh tasting. It makes a bunch, so invite some friends over. I like to take the lime after it's been juiced and rub down the bowl I will be serving the salsa in. I also rub the lime on the plastic wrap this will help keep the avocados from turning brown. Don't forget the tortilla chips!

Tips:

  • Freshness is vital; use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best results. Crisp corn, ripe black beans, and flavorful cilantro will make all the difference.
  • Don't overcook the corn. It should retain a slight crunch. If you're using frozen corn, thaw it completely before adding it to the salad.
  • Rinse and drain the black beans well before using them. This will help to remove any excess starch and make the salad lighter.
  • Feel free to add other ingredients to your salad, such as diced red onion, chopped bell pepper, or crumbled feta cheese. Experiment and find what you like best!
