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.

WONDERFUL SALSA WITH BLACK BEANS AND CORN
I love Chic chi's Fiesta Style Salsa and was looking for a recipe on here that was similar and I couldn't find one. I canned Wonderful Salsa, recipe #9272 last year and LOVED it, so I created my own "Fiesta" Salsa. I would like to thank Jazze22 for sharing her Wonderful Salsa recipe. I will post the recipe as I made it, I did make a couple changes from the original recipe. I hope if you try it, that you like it as much as I do. To cut the heat remove the veins and seeds. Also, wear gloves when handling the peppers.

BLACK BEAN AVOCADO SALSA WITH CORN
Steps:
- Preheat the grill over medium-high heat.
- Rub the shucked corn with olive oil and place onto the grill and cook until nicely charred on all sides, about 5 minutes per side. Allow to cool slightly prior to removing the kernels and transferring to a large bowl.
- Add the cherry tomatoes, avocados, black beans and onions to the grilled corn kernels.
- Mix together the 2 tablespoons olive oil, agave, cumin, garlic, lime juice, serrano, cayenne, and salt and black pepper to taste in a separate bowl. Whisk together, as you would to make a vinaigrette, and pour over the corn mixture. Mix together gently so everything is coated well, and then fold in the cilantro and scallions.
GRILLED TUNA STEAKS WITH ROASTED CORN AND TOMATO SALSA
Steps:
- First make the salsa. Preheat the broiler. While it is heating, prepare the corn. Holding each ear upright, cut off the kernels with a sharp knife. Heat a large heavy-based skillet or frying pan without any fat over high heat until almost smoking. Add the kernels and dry-roast until tender, smoky and dark, tossing continuously as they tend to stick, 4 to 5 minutes. Cook the peppers under the broiler, turning them until the skin chars and bursts, 7 to 10 minutes. Put them in a plastic bag and leave to sweat and cool so the skins loosen. Peel the peppers, discarding cores and seeds. Dice the flesh.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large frying pan. Add the onion and saute until soft but not brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Take the pan from the heat and stir in the roasted corn, chopped tomatoes, sun-dried tomatoes, diced peppers, vinegar and remaining oil. Heat, stirring, until hot. Take from the heat and keep warm.
- Rinse fish steaks and pat dry with paper towels. Brush with half the oil, season with salt and pepper and set on oiled grill pan or grill. Broil 3 to 4 minutes. Turn steaks over, brush with the remaining oil and grill until done to taste, 2 to 3 minutes longer.
- Meanwhile, stir the cilantro and lime juice into the salsa, taste and adjust seasoning. Make a bed of salsa on 4 warmed plates and place a tuna steak on top of each. Serve at once.

- Add some chopped red onion for a bit of bite.
- Add some chopped cilantro for a fresh, herbaceous flavor.
- Season the salsa with salt, pepper, and lime juice to taste.
- Serve the salsa immediately or chill it for later.
