Black Bean Salsa–One of My Favorite Harvest Time Recipes

Of course you could eat this any time of year, it just happens that fresh tomatoes from the garden make me think of making this every fall.  You can use store tomatoes if that’s all you have.  So without further ado, here it is.

Black Bean Salsa

2 medium tomatoes diced
1 can black beans rinsed well and drained
1 can corn drained
1 bunch green onions chopped (or use regular onion or chives–whatever you have around.  I’ve been using chives because the chive plants are crazy here and I’d have to go buy green onions)
1 small bunch cilantro chopped (fresh is best, but dried works okay also)
Dash of salt totally optional (I don’t put it in)
Mix all those ingredients together and then pour one packet of Good Seasons Italian dressing prepared as directed over it.  Like prepare the dressing first so it’s liquid, then pour it over the other ingredients.  Make sense?

You can find the Good Seasons dressing in the salad dressing aisle–usually at the top.  Go ahead and get the cute little mixing cruset thingy–you’ll be making a lot of this salsa so you’ll want an easy way to mix up the dressing. ;)

Stir it all up and serve with your favorite corn tortilla chips.

Oh my.  It is so yummy.  You have my permission to eat a big bowl of this for lunch.  That’s right, not with lunch, for lunch.  That’s how I eat it.  It has to be good for you.

Keep preparing!
