CHUNKY BLACK BEAN SALSA
This colorful salsa can be served as an appetizer with chips, as a condiment with fish or chicken, or even as a main dish with tortilla chips for a light lunch. I recently served it for lunch with a cucumber salad and fruit on the side. The spices add interest to the flavor. Cilantro can take over the taste, so use it lightly if you prefer.
3 large Roma tomatoes, chopped
1 15.5 ounce can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup frozen corn, thawed
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped red or green bell pepper
1 small jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
1/4 cup chopped cilantro, or to taste
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1 clove garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon powdered cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon salt, opt.
Combine ingredients in a 1 1/2 quart bowl. Chill for 2 hours or more for flavors to blend. Serve with tortilla chips, if desired. Makes about 5 cups.
