Black Bean and Corn Salsa

A close-up of a black bean salad with red onion, tomatoes, corn, avocado, and cilantro in a wooden bowl.

The Persian Lime / Cilantro Garlic vinaigrette makes this Black Bean and Corn Salsa as tasty as it is colorful! Whether you’re hosting a backyard barbecue or just craving something flavorful, it’s the perfect, easy, summer appetizer served with tortilla chips. It also makes an awesome topping for Southwest-style salads, tacos, or nachos.

Ingredients:

  • 15 ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 cup fresh corn kernels (roasted corn on the grill makes this taste even better!)
  • 2 fresh tomatoes, chopped
  • 1/4 cup red onion, chopped (or more to your taste)
  • 1 avocado, chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons The Olive Tap's Persian Lime Olive Oil
  • 1 tablespoon The Olive Tap's Cilantro Garlic White Balsamic Vinegar
  • The Olive Tap's Kosher Flake Sea Salt to taste

*if you like a little "kick", try the Lambrusco Serrano Pepper Honey Vinegar instead of the Cilantro Garlic

Directions:

Combine all the ingredients in medium bowl and toss with the Persian Lime Olive Oil and Cilantro Garlic White Balsamic Vinegar to coat.  Add the Kosher Flake Sea Salt to taste.

Enjoy!
