This simple and fresh black bean salsa is very easy to throw together at home anytime. It’s especially great in the summer months when corn, tomatoes, and cilantro are all in season. This recipe can be customized any way you want, easily. Chopped avocado is a great addition or even pineapple, peaches, or mangoes. The salt + sweet flavors match wonderfully.
