Tailgating Season

Delicious Black Bean Salsa

2 cups firm-cooked black beans
 (rinse well) 

3-4 jalapeño peppers, seeded and minced
 (maybe more if you love spice)

1 ripe avocado, peeled, pitted and finely diced
 

1 poblano chile, seeded and finely diced


3/4 red bell pepper, cored, seeded and finely diced


3/4 cup corn kernels (fresh & cooked or frozen & thawed)


½ cup finely diced red onion


½ teaspoon ground cumin


3 tablespoons lime juice


2 tablespoons olive oil


½ cup finely chopped fresh cilantro


Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Combine all of the ingredients for the salsa in a mixing bowl and toss well. Add more salt or lime juice as needed. Serve with your favorite tortilla chips.

*If you are going to be out in the sun, I would forget the avocado. (It will brown so fast!) 

Colorful black bean salsa for tailgating!!
