What We Cook: Black Bean Salsa ~ page 15

Our Cookbook Blog

Our Cookbook ~ What We Cook, is a compilation of every recipe we (Janice and Carissa) cook - recipes from our cookbook collections, our recipe boxes, and our heads! We set up this blog for friends and family who have our cookbook to let them see pictures we post of the recipes in the book, and also for us to note any corrections, revisions, or additions to What We Cook. We encourage people who are cooking our recipes to let us know how the recipes turn out and any suggestions they might want to make.

In addition, we will be sharing some of our new recipes (along with pictures) that are not in our cookbook. We hope you will help us out and test recipes and give us your comments.

Black Bean Salsa ~ page 15

Years ago, Carissa ate this at a party she was at, and later told me it was so good she wanted to just skip the chips and eat it with a spoon! She tracked down the recipe from the friend that made it. We both love making this for large groups now.

Be sure to rinse your black beans, and drain both the beans and the shoepeg corn. I was missing the avocado that the recipe calls for, and that was a shame, as avocado is really nice in this recipe, but this salsa is still wonderful even without it.
