tgif: black bean & corn salsa.
Why yes indeed this blogger is posting a recipe. I don't think I've ever done that before. I'm not a cook who makes big, fancy meals. Well, not very often these days.
I found this yummy black bean & corn salsa-like salad at the salad bar at New Seasons. It's yummy. And after treating myself to a lovely salad with this black bean and corn mixture and their to-die-for homemade buttermilk ranch dressing, I realized I could probably just make it myself and not pay an arm and a leg for it.
What you'll need:
1 can black beans, rinsed
1 can sweet corn, rinsed
3-4 green onions
1 tomato
1/2 a sweet onion or red onion
1/2 red pepper
1/2 green pepper
cilantro
Finely chop the green onions, tomato, sweet onion, red pepper, green pepper and cilantro.
Rinse and toss the black beans and sweet corn in a big bowl.
Toss in all those yummy veggies.
Chop more of any of those veggies you can't get enough of... like tomato. ;)
You can eat as is in a big bowl with a big spoon.
Or you can shred some cheese and make throw a little of that goodness into a quesadilla.
That's what we did.
And I garnished with a little more salsa and a squeeze of lime juice.
Are you drooling yet?...
I know I'm ready for seconds!
And this concludes my first, and perhaps only, recipe blog post.
You're welcome!
Happy Friday, friends!
(And if I ever figure out how to make a delicious, homemade buttermilk ranch dressing I will most certainly share with you!)

Natalie makes a very similar black bean salsa from one of the Nordstrom cookbooks. SO yummy! Congratulations on your first recipe post. ;)
I am so hungry, this looks so good! I make a similar one...just add chopped avocado!
