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!

Thanks so much, Margie! You made my day. So glad everyone likes it. 🙂
I just made this after having lusted after it on pinterest for weeks. I ate about half of the batch already. It’s so delicious. I didn’t have cumin so I used seasoned salt and it turned out really well. Thank you for this.
Thanks so much, Kami… so glad you enjoyed it. Happy New Year! 🙂
I grab a bag of salad greens and a tub of this salsa in the fresh section at the grocery store for 3 or 4 weekday lunches. It’s so tasty, satisfying and filling! I really should just whip it up myself.
You should make it, Lauren… so easy and soooo good! 🙂
I just made this adding diced black olives, red, green, and yellow peppers and it’s absolutely delicious
Thanks so much Danielle! So glad you liked it! 🙂
How many people would this recipe feed as an appetizer do you think?
Hi Jackie! This recipe yields 6 cups of Black Bean Salsa. I would think 1/2 cup portions would be a good appetizer size, so probably 12 appetizer servings? It totally depends upon the appetites of your guests. Hope you enjoy! 🙂
Could I make this ahead of time?
Hi Melanie, Yes! I would store in a covered container for up to 24 hours before serving.
I am going to try the cucumber recipe tomorrow. It looks delicious!
Thanks so much, Pam. Hope you enjoy it! Happy 4th! 🙂
MAde it for the 4th of July cookout!! It is delicious! Thank you!!
Thanks so much, Sherri and hope you had a great 4th! 🙂
Can this recipes be used to. can the salsa ?
Hi Mary, sorry for the delay in responding… have been moving the past several days. I’ve never tried canning it so I cannot say, and I don’t do a lot of canning (it’s on my list to tackle, though!). Good luck and hope you enjoy the recipe. 🙂
How long will it keep Iin the fridge?
Kim
Hi Kim, I’ve refrigerated it up to 24 hours before serving… but I can’t say how it would be refrigerated any longer than that. Hope you enjoy! 🙂
I made it and it was very delicious. I would like more black beans and less corn next time and it got a little juicy after sitting so didn’t know how it would turn out if I cut the olive oil and lime juice in half but it was still very good.
