Black Bean Salsa

Earlier this summer Olivia from Soul Singing Liv asked me to share a summer themed post while her family vacationed in Arizona. I was tickled to pass on this fabulous recipe. It is seriously one of the best and I pretty much consider it a crime if it isn't at every summer BBQ/picnic/potluck.

Something about summer literally makes my mouth water for Mexican food. Especially salsa. 

This recipe is from my dear friend, Charissa, and is hands-down the ultimate salsa. May I introduce ... BLACK BEAN SALSA! Here's what you'll need:

• 2-15 oz cans of black beans, drained and rinsed 
• 1-15 oz can of corn, drained
• 3 cloves of garlic
• 1/2 cup lime juice, start with that, but you usually need more especially if it sits for awhile
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1 1/2 teaspoon cumin
• 1 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
• 1 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1/2 cup chopped Italian parsley
• 1/2 cup cilantro
• 1 chopped red pepper 
• 1 small chopped red onion

Mix everything together in a large bowl and I promise you won't be disappointed! I highly recommend eating it with those bright green guacamole chips if you're going the dipping route. It is also fabulous atop burrito bowls or on nachos!

... Oh so many ways to follow along ...
