Tired of the same ol' salsas & dips? Well, kick it up a little with this bean & corn salsa of mine. It's so easy to make in addition to being colorful & delicious!
Pair it up with a favorite grilled meat or Mexican inspired dish - or just serve it alongside tortilla chips. Use your imagination, and try it with a variety of dishes to add a whole new flavor element to it. Take my Pork Carnitas for instance, I never serve them without this bean salsa!
