BLACK BEAN AVOCADO SALSA
This has to be my favorite summer salsa. It's colorful and fresh tasting. It makes a bunch, so invite some friends over. I like to take the lime after it's been juiced and rub down the bowl I will be serving the salsa in. I also rub the lime on the plastic wrap this will help keep the avocados from turning brown. Don't forget the tortilla chips!

MANGO, CORN, AND BLACK BEAN SALSA
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.

Tips:
- Choose Fresh, High-Quality Ingredients: Start with the freshest, ripest ingredients for the best flavor. Look for vibrant, colorful vegetables, ripe avocados, and flavorful cilantro.
- Use a Variety of Beans and Corn: Don't limit yourself to just black beans. Try using a mix of black beans, pinto beans, kidney beans, or corn for a more complex flavor and texture.
- Experiment with Different Peppers: The type of pepper you use will greatly affect the spiciness of your salsa. For a milder salsa, use bell peppers or poblano peppers. For a spicier salsa, use jalapeños, serrano peppers, or habanero peppers.
- Add Fresh Herbs and Spices: Fresh herbs like cilantro, parsley, or basil can brighten up the flavor of your salsa. You can also add a pinch of cumin, chili powder, or garlic powder for extra depth of flavor.
- Don't Overdo the Lime Juice: Lime juice can add a nice tang to your salsa, but don't overdo it. Too much lime juice can overpower the other flavors.
- Chill Before Serving: Let your salsa chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop.
