I've just gotten back from a fourth of July celebration at my sister's house, and just have to post the divine salsa she made for us. What's great is that she predicted that I would want the recipe and emailed it to me this morning before I even arrived at her house. We believe it's a Weight Watchers recipe, though we're not sure. My sister got it from her sister-in-law who we think got it from her mom.. and who knows where it came from before then. Regardless of its origin, it is DELICIOUS. I love non-traditional salsas with black beans or tomatillos. (My aunt makes a fabulous tomatillo salsa.) This is a great recipe to pull out to impress your friends.
Black Bean and Corn Salsa
- 1 can black beans, drained
- 1 can whole kernel corn, drained
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1/2 purple onion, diced
- 2-3 jalapenos, diced
- a few green onions
- 1/3 cup lime juice
- 1/3 cup lemon juice
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp red pepper
In a large bowl, combine vegetables.
Mix together lime juice, lemon juice, and olive oil. Add to vegetables and toss to coat. Sprinkle with cumin, salt, and red pepper, then mix thoroughly.
