ZESTY Southwest Salsa


black bean salsa with tortilla chips and limes
Using canned goods and a few fresh veggies, this salsa takes only 5 minutes to make.

Ingredients

1 can no-added-salt/low-sodium black beans (if available)

1 can no-added-salt corn (if available)

Ā½ red onion

1 tomato

Juice of 1 lime


Directions

  1. Pour black beans and corn into a colander and rinse well under cold running water. (This eliminates any added salt as well as the stuff that can make you gassy.)

  2. While the beans and corn are being rinsed, dice the onion and tomato.

  3. Combine the veggies into a bowl.

  4. Squeeze the juice from 1 lime over the veggies and stir with a wooden spoon so everything in the bowl is exposed to the lime juice.

  5. Optionally, let the salsa marinate overnight for a zestier flavor. If you like spice, you may opt to add a pinch of chili powder or cayenne.
