This is probably the easiest salsa recipe ever since it can be made in 5 minutes and it’s so flavourful. Impressive how just a few ingredients can work so well.
This salsa was the perfect pairing to go with Boldr Vodka Sodas since both of them are fresh tasting and will be a fantastic option for the summer months to come. These vodka sodas come in 4 amazing flavours, they are only 110 calories and have 3 g of carbs. Boldr is perfectly balanced and full of all-natural fruit flavour. They are great for any occasion and I’ll be keeping the fridge stocked with these.
Boldr is made in Canada and is gluten-free. They are available in Black Cherry, Mango, Ruby Grapefruit and Peach flavours.
I enjoyed the Mango Vodka Soda along with this salsa recipe. To be honest, I had one while making it and one while digging into this delicious salsa.
INGREDIENTS:
-
1 can of black beans
-
1 can of corn (not creamy)
-
2 1/2 cups of cherry tomatoes
-
1 jalapeno pepper or 2 tbsp of pickled jalapeño
-
2 tbsp of ground cumin
-
juice of 2 limes
-
salt & pepper to taste
DIRECTIONS:
-
Chop your cherry tomatoes in half or gluten-free quarters depending on the size and add to a large mixing bowl.
-
Drain your can of corn and add to the bowl.
-
If you are using a whole jalapeño, slice in half and remove seeds. I prefer to use pickled jalapeños in a jar as a shortcut. Just finely chop them and add them to the bowl.
-
Add the cumin, a few pinches of salt and a few cracks of fresh black pepper.
-
Squeeze out the juice of 2 limes. Stir to combine all the ingredients.
-
Let sit in the fridge for at least 30 minutes if you can, and let all of the flavours marinate.
