Corn and Black Bean Salsa

2 cups fresh or frozen corn kernals

1 small red onion, diced

1 jalapeno, minced

1 green bell pepper, diced

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 can of black beans

1 large tomato, chopped

1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Juice of 1 lime

S&P

Preheat your broiler and add the corn, onions, bell peppers, and jalapeno to a baking tray. Drizzle the veggies with olive oil and broil for several minutes (flipping as necessary), until the veggies have begun to char. Add the rest of the ingredients to a large bowl and, when the veggies are done in the oven, add them to the bowl too. Give it a stir and taste for seasoning, adding more lime, salt or pepper, if necessary.

We had this last night wrapped in a corn tortilla. It was really good, although, I had to substitute a few tablespoons jarred salsa for the tomatoes, bell peppers, and jalapeno. This is so good, in fact, that we are planning to serve it at Emma’s birthday party with some chips for dipping! It’s totally a crowd pleaser and it can be prepared a day or so in advance.
