In several recent recipes I've referenced homemade salsa, and the only link I have takes you to a hummus quesadilla recipe wherein the salsa is defined. So, I figured it was high-time to give my favorite salsa a place of its own. And when I say "favorite" I mean it! I make a veritable troff of this stuff once a week and we ladle it on everything we eat. When we want a snack, we grab a bag of Santitas (hey, they're 2 bucks) and go to town. It's delicious! Give it a try. Here's the recipe...
8-10 large tomatoes, diced
1 white onion, diced
3 - 4 large cloves of garlic, crushed and minced
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
1 bunch fresh cilantro, finely chopped
1 15-ounce can of sweet corn, drained
1 15-ounce can of black beans, drained and rinsed
1/3 cup lime juice (or less, to taste - I like it "lime-y")
1 tablespoon paprika (optional)
1 teaspoon salt (optional)
- Throw it all in a big bowl, stir it up real good, cover it and stick it in the fridge.
- Tastes best after it's had a few hours in the fridge.
- This makes a HUGE bowl. Perfect for parties. If you don't want so much, try cutting the recipe in half.
- It will keep well in the fridge, covered, up to a week.
- Enjoy!

Great recipe. I bet this would be great with Mango too.
Looks fabulous!
Yum! This is a perfect salsa recipe to try! Full of color and yummy lime and cilantro--all good stuff. We consider salsa its own food group in this house. Seriously.
Looks so pretty! These are in one of our mexican food thursday night rotations.
Just made a variation of this, kinda a combo of your Veggie Rainbow Salsa and this recipe since I added a can of canellini beans w/ the black beans and included bell pepper. Also used 2 cobs of fresh corn instead of canned and smoked paprika (which is my current obsession -YUM) tasted it and its so delish! Letting it sit in the fridge to let the flavors get cozy now. . . I don't know if I can wait much longer to dig in though :) Thanks for the recipe and the great blog.
Yum. That sounds great!!
