Our Macro-Friendly Black Bean Corn Salsa is the perfect compliment to any party, gathering, BBQ, or get-together! This dish is packed with nutrients, full of flavor, and will be enjoyed by all – even the self-proclaimed non-bean people.
I make this dish every summer when we have a cookout to attend or are having friends over to the house to swim. Instead of grabbing a jar of salsa, I’ll whip this up and everyone is always impressed. For the ten minutes it’ll take you to throw this together, it’s well worth the effort!

Once the flavors are well balanced, cover the bowl and refrigerate the salsa for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. This resting time will enhance the taste.
