Salsa does just not have to be served with the traditional tortilla chips anymore. This black bean corn salsa is a great addition to any meal, or dish. Best of all, it is a fat free and low calorie accompaniment.

Happy Cooking!

* 1 can black beans - drained and washed

* 1 can corn - drained

* 1/2 cup diced red onion

* 1/4 cup diced jalapenos

* 1/2 cup chopped cilantro

* 1/4 cup fresh lime juice

* 2 large tomatoes - diced

* 2 cloves garlic - chopped

* salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Wash all your veggies, drain all your canned goods, and cut as described. Combine all into a plastic or glass container.

Chill in the refrigerator at least 8 hours, or overnight, before serving.

Tip From Chef Bek:

Do not use a metal container to store the salsa. The acids in the lime juice and tomatoes will have a reaction with the metal.

Serving Suggestions:

* Serve with warm tortilla chips.

* Serve as a sauce for fresh fish.

* Wrap in a warm tortilla with chicken, sliced avocado, and lettuce.

* Place inside a breakfast omelet.

* Add to a bed of mixed greens with some crushed tortilla chips.
