Mexican Black Bean & Avocado Salsa: This is a delicious salsa recipe that your guests will without a doubt love! I served my salsa with corn chips.

If you are accommodating gluten free guests, this appetizer is a great option but you will have to ensure the chips do not contain hidden wheat ingredients.


Mexican Black Bean & Avocado Salsa Recipe:

  • Prep time: 12 minutes
  • Serves: 15

Ingredients:

  • 1 can black beans (19 oz), drained and rinsed
  • 2 medium fresh tomatoes, diced
  • 1 cup corn, frozen
  • ¼ cup red onion, finely chopped
  • 1 avocado, peeled and diced
  • ¼ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 whole lime, juiced
  • pinch salt and fresh ground pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine black beans, corn, diced tomatoes, onion, garlic, cilantro. Wait to add avocado.
  2. Combine lime juice and olive oil and pour over salad.
  3. Toss salad gently and season to taste.
  4. When ready to serve, add avocado. Fold in gently.

Note: An easy substitute for fresh cilantro is fresh parsley.
