Black Bean and Corn Salsa
Avocado Corn Black Bean Salsa. Perfect as an appetizer or snack! Loaded with black beans, corn and tomato. Serve at your next party or get together!
Looking for a quick and easy appetizer or side dish? I’ve got you covered. This Avocado Corn and Black Bean Salsa takes less than 10 minutes to make and only requires a few ingredients!
This salsa is fresh and healthy with a mixture of avocado, tomatoes, black beans, red bell pepper and corn. It’s dressed with fresh squeezed lime juice and extra virgin olive oil.
I also add in jalapeños and red onion for a little spice. Once all of my ingredients are prepped I toss everything together in one large bowl. I find the longer this salsa sits in the refrigerator the better it tastes! This helps the flavors to develop. I like to let it sit for at least 30 minutes or overnight! Just wait to add the avocado until you are ready to serve the salsa.
