Garage Sale and Black Bean Salsa

We had a garage sale with my sister-in-law’s family at their house yesterday. It was pretty successful – we had things super cheap. We figured “Let’s get rid of it so we have less to clean up and haul to the donation center!”

Anyways, I wanted to share a recipe with you. I made this and took it over for everyone to munch on as a snack since we were there all day. My sister-in-law asked if I would post the recipe…

Black Bean Salsa

2 cans black beans, rinsed and drained
2 cans white shoepeg corn, rinsed and drained
6 T. lime juice (I use more.)
6 T. olive oil (I was out so used canola.)
1 ½ t. cumin
½ c. chopped red onion
¼ - ½ c. chopped cilantro
½ t. salt
1 c. chopped tomatoes (Take the seeds and pulp out first.)

Combine everything except tomatoes.
Refrigerate overnight, and then add tomatoes the next day.
Serve with tortilla chips or eat as a side.

I first ate this in the teachers’ lounge a few years back and couldn’t get enough.
I hadn’t had anything like it since I had lived in Texas!
