MANGO, CORN, AND BLACK BEAN SALSA



Mango, Corn, and Black Bean Salsa image

My neighbor introduced me to this cool dish that can stand alone as an easy side dish or tastes great with chicken made up as fajitas. This is a recipe that can be altered to use up other fruits you have on hand. I have used a mix of mangoes and peaches to make this, and it would probably taste great with pineapple or other tart fruits, but if you like mangoes as much as I do, you will want to let that flavor dominate. Optional to chill before serving.

FRESH BLACK BEAN AND CORN SALSA

2 -3 large tomatoes, chopped
1 bunch cilantro, chopped very fine
2 limes, juice of
2 avocados (optional)

Steps:

  • First, mix the frozen corn and the taco mix - this will coat the corn and give it time to thaw while you get everything else together.
  • Then prepare and add the other ingredients and mix gently.
  • The corn will help keep the salsa cool while you are taking it where ever it needs to go.
  • I try to make 2 or 3 hours ahead so the taco mix can do it's thing.

CHARRED CORN AND BLACK BEAN SALSA



Charred Corn and Black Bean Salsa image

This charred corn salsa came about when I wanted to make use of some leftover ingredients after making a Mexican dish the night before. Broiling a few of the ingredients up front and using fire-roasted tomatoes gives it a nice smoky flavor. The recipe as-is will yield a salsa on the spicier side of mild. Alter the spice level by increasing or decreasing chili powder to taste. Serve with chips or use in any recipe that calls for salsa.

BLACK BEAN, CORN, AND SALSA SOUP



Black Bean, Corn, and Salsa Soup image

I really enjoyed this soup! Most of the ingredients were already in my pantry, plus the salsa and "slightly" spicy refried beans, added just the right amount of spice to the soup.

Provided by Cindi M Bauer

Categories     Other Soups

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 (15 oz.) cans black beans
1-1/2 tablespoons of butter
1/4 cup diced onion
2 large cloves of garlic, minced
black pepper, desired amount added
1 tsp. ground cumin
1 (16 oz.) can spicy fat free refried beans
1 cup salsa (mild or medium heat)
3 cups canned beef broth
1 can (15.25 oz.) whole kernel corn, drained
soup garnishings: shredded cheddar cheese & sour scream (opt.)

Steps:

  • 1. Drain and rinse both cans of black beans, then set the beans aside.
  • 2. Melt the butter in a 3-quart saucepan, then add the diced onion. Sprinkle onion with a bit of black pepper.
  • 3. Saute the diced onion for 2 minutes, then add the minced garlic, and continute to saute the onion and garlic for 1 minute more.
  • 4. Sprinkle the cumin over the onion and garlic, then add the can of refried beans, the salsa, and the beef broth, and stir.

Tips for Making the Best Black Bean and Corn Salsa

  • Use fresh, ripe ingredients. This will give your salsa the best flavor and texture.
  • Choose the right type of tomatoes. Roma tomatoes are a good choice because they are less juicy and have a firmer texture.
  • Chop the vegetables evenly. This will help them to distribute evenly throughout the salsa.
  • Don't over-mix the salsa. A few gentle stirs is all that is needed to combine the ingredients.
  • Let the salsa chill for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Serve the salsa with your favorite chips, tacos, or burritos. You can also use it as a topping for grilled chicken or fish.
