Balsamic Black Bean Salsa C

This black bean salsa is easy to make, but it will be the first thing to disappear at a party.  Be sure and watch the video below to see how easy it is to assemble the Balsamic Black Bean Salsa.

Balsamic Black Bean Salsa

I have lost track of how many times I have made this black bean salsa.  It has been my go to appetizer for a long time. Whenever I am asked to bring something to a potluck, I whip up a batch of this delicious salsa  And every time I make it, I am asked for the recipe.  That is always a sign that the recipe is definitely a keeper.

Not only is it delicious but the colors are so pretty!  I love the contrast of the yellow corn against the black beans.

Balsamic Black Bean Salsa and chipsTips for Making the Best Black Bean Salsa

Typically you drain the corn and black beans before you make this salsa.  But I have to admit I didn’t read the recipe close enough the first time I made it.  Instead of draining most of the liquid from the salsa before serving, I served it with all of the liquid.  But I loved it!   And I have made it that way every time.  It does make it a bit soupier, but I think the flavors of the balsamic vinegar, salsa verde, and lime juice are so yummy together that the extra liquid just made it better.  So you can choose!

You will want to refrigerate the black bean salsa before serving.  The time in the refrigerator allows those flavors to meld together more and makes it even more delicious.

    I made this two nights ago for my husband who is a big fan of bean and corn salsa. I used a comparable amount of Trader Joe’s Hatch Valley Salsa in lieu of Herdez. It provided a nice touch of warmth. My husband loved this and has been savoring it by the spoonful. Who needs chips?

    As a side note, I enjoy your recipes very much. They are easy, approachable and quickly become part of my tried and true list. Thanks!
