Blackbean Salsa


Today is Saturday. I am home relaxing and watching movies with my family. Today I am planning to make Blackbean salsa and serve it with tortilla chips for afternoon snack. It is a very healthy and tasty salsa. Even my little boy likes it.

Here are the ingredients we need:
1 15 oz can black beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 finely chopped green pepper
1/2 finely chopped red pepper
1/2 finely chopped yellow pepper
2 finely chopped tomatoes, discard the seeds
1 cup of frozen corn , thawed
few finely chopped JalapeƱos
Lime juice
few cloves of garlic finely chopped
1 big onion finely chopped (I like red onion)
1 bunch of cilantro (coriander leaves) finely chopped
1 tbsp olive oil
salt
pepper
cumin powder
coriander powder
red chilli powder

Mix all the ingredients in a big bowl and serve it with tortilla chips as a snack. You can also serve it with chopped lettuce. Adjust the lemon juice, salt and spices as per your taste.
