I also use Zesty Italian dressing in this recipe.

Sometimes, but usually we just eat organic corn chips.

Hi Laura,
I’ve been wondering if you also make your own tortilla chips? Just out of curiosity :))

I really love this stuff, I think another name is Black Bean & Corn Pico de Gallo? Unfortunately I have YET to be able to cook black beans and have them stay small and shiny black! Mine always swell, split and turn brown :( What am I doing wrong??? Tried boiling. Brown. Tried crock-pot. Brown. And I know for a FACT they can be cooked and still be black on the outside and white on the inside because I’ve eaten them like that 3 times (once at a restaurant, once at a luncheon, once on my own using a can of them from Save-A-Lot, which when I went back for more all the cans I bought and opened were brown.) Will have to try the soaking overnight I guess, making the cooking time (45 minutes I think you said) so much shorter. Thank you!

Laura, this is a great recipe! One of my friends introduced me to it last summer and I was HOOKED! I add fresh lime juice, minced garlic and cumin to my version. This is sure to be a crowd pleaser!!

I have canned my own own salsa, but not this recipe. You’d have to use a pressure canner with this one since it has beans and corn in it. Plus, I’m not sure about the taste. I think this one tastes better fresh!

Laura, I have a question for the tomato queen! Have you canned your own salsa? have you canned this salsa? Salsa is one of the very last prepared foods we eat. I plan on doing some canning this year and would love to know if you’ve done this and how it turned out.

I just love black bean salsa. I could eat it with a fork and No chips without a problem. Thanks for sharing your recipe. I’ll try that one next.
