Corn and black beans make this refreshing salsa a healthy alternative to store-bought salsa. This flavorful dip gets a fiery kick from chili powder. Serve it with whole grain tortilla chips.
Ingredients
3 ears of corn, husked, or 2 1/4 cups frozen corn, cooked
1 can (15.5 oz) black beans, rinsed and drained
1 1/2 cups chopped fresh cilantro
3 scallions, chopped
2 cups chopped seeded tomatoes
2 tsp chili powder
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
Preparation
If using fresh corn, bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add ears of corn and reduce heat to medium. Boil for 10 minutes.
With tongs, remove corn from water and allow to cool. With a sharp knife, cut the corn off the cob.
In a bowl, mix corn and remaining ingredients. Toss to combine.
Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour.
