Are you a salsa lover?  I go through phases of snacking on it repeatedly, then I won’t eat it for a long time.  It’s been a while, so I recently made this crazy easy and delicious Black Bean Salsa.

Black Bean Salsa Recipe

Full of black beans, corn and tomatoes with red onions, a few jalapeños, cilantro, herbs and seasonings… this is your GO-TO salsa recipe for a hearty and healthy appetizer!  I added just a little cumin, but feel free to omit it if you’re not a fan of it.

This salsa is by far one of the most filling and heartiest that I’ve ever eaten.  These fresh ingredients come together in no time!

This recipe yields 6 cups of salsa which is perfect for a get-together… and I’m sure there won’t be any left.  Enjoy!
