One 15.5-ounce can black beans, drained

BLACK BEAN AVOCADO SALSA

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:

  • Prep your ingredients beforehand: For a stress-free salsa-making experience, wash and dice your veggies, and drain and rinse your black beans before you start cooking.
  • Choose ripe avocados: Perfectly ripe avocados will yield the creamiest, most flavorful salsa. Look for avocados that give slightly to gentle pressure and have a deep, dark green skin.
  • Don't overmix: Overmixing your salsa can result in a mushy texture. Gently stir everything together until just combined, taking care not to break up the avocado slices.
  • Use fresh herbs and spices: Fresh herbs like cilantro and cumin add a burst of flavor to your salsa. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, dried herbs will work in a pinch, but use half the amount.
  • Adjust the heat level to your liking: If you like spicy salsa, add more jalapeño peppers or a dash of cayenne pepper. For a milder salsa, omit the jalapeños altogether.

Conclusion:

This black bean, avocado, and corn salsa is a delicious and versatile dish that's perfect for any occasion. Enjoy it as a dip with tortilla chips, as a topping for tacos or burritos, or as a side dish for grilled chicken or fish. With its vibrant colors and fresh flavors, this salsa is sure to be a hit at your next party or potluck.
