Fresh Corn and Black Bean Salsa Recipe

Here is a super simple recipe that is perfect for summer.  I love to make this for parties or as a snack for long days at the pool.  This is also perfect for hot summer nights when turning on the oven and cooking is not something to get excited about.

You can customize this a bit to suit your tastes and what you might have in the fridge/garden.  Here is the basic recipe:

This will make a large bowl of salsa and you can enjoy it with so many things— chips for dipping, quesadillas, with rice and shredded chicken….

Cilantro adds quite a bit of flavor to this recipe and I often kick it up with extra lime juice too.   I am not a huge jalapeno person but I know many of you will want to add that into the salsa as well.

If you have fresh avocado that adds a lot of creaminess to this salsa and really makes it a meal for me- I love this served over leftover rice with a tiny bit of cheese.  (Just like a burrito bowl)
