Corn Salsa

Life has been busy in April for us and from the look of our blog posts (or lack there of), for everyone else as well.  My husband's sister sent us a recipe for a simple corn salsa and we tried it this week.  We used it on steak and tortillas along with avocado as an added garnish.  It was delicious and very refreshing.  On lettuce the next day, it made a great vegetarian salad for me to take to work.

We did alter the recipe a bit by slightly cooking the red peppers with some garlic, and then adding the beans and the corn.  Here is the recipe.  I think it would go well with other meats or on it's own.

1 15oz caned black beans rinsed

1 c thawed or fresh corn, sweet is best

1/2 c each chopped red pepper and cilantro
3 TB lime juice
Red onion to taste
2 TB balsamic vinegar
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cumin
