corn and black bean salsa

every salsa recipe uses tomatoes in some quantity, but this one is very different.  this salsa recipe omits the tomatoes and adds black beans.  perfect for tostito chips, this salsa is a great topping and wonderful appetizer.  using 1/2 cup of drained and rinsed black beans, add 1/2 cup of thawed frozen corn, 1/2 chopped red onion, and 1/4 cup chopped red pepper.  mix and if desired, add a mixture to taste of lime juice and olive oil.

this easy recipe can be adapted to taste and will be a treat for your guests.
