This is a really good salsa.  I made it this past weekend and it was delicious.  Things I did differently were :  I used Fresh tomatoes not canned.  About 2 medium ones that I chopped and took the pulp out of.  I also added 2 tablespoons of TACO seasoning mix. This gave it a nice flavor. You can also substitute with cumin if you'd like.  I omitted the oil and the avocado.  I added about 1/4 cup of chopped jalapeno in.  I let it sit over night so the flavors could marinate really well.  With the leftovers I made black bean quesadillas the next day adding cheddar cheese to the tortillas.   Will make again !!

Very VERY tasty! However, I cut the recipe back by half. ommited the olive oil, added the full quarter cup of lime juice, and used all the cilantro. I also found that using fresh corn right off the corn is WONDERFUL and very cost effective during the summer months.

I love black bean and corn salsa! For this recipe, I used fresh tomato instead of canned, left out the onion (I don't care for them raw) and the avocado (did'nt have one), and I added some cumin. I served it over enchiladas, but could have eaten it with a spoon (and still might, there is some left over). Thanks for the recipe!

This recipe is similar to my original corn & black bean salsa, except I used fresh tomatoes. HOWEVER, I finally wisened up and found a short cut - fresh pico de gallo from the grocery store produce section, canned corn & black beans drained. The only things you have to cut are the avocado and slice the lime in half. Cuts prep time tremendiously!

Incredible!  The only thing I would probably change is to use real diced tomatoes and another avocado.  The canned tomatoes were just weird.  I found myself trying to avoid them.  Other than that, it is a really filling dip and great for parties!  It's easy, cheap, awesome, and different from the usual party dips (cheese dip, guacamole, etc.)

I really like this recipe. I've been making something similar for years. Instead of the canned tomatoes I use fresh. Then I also add in a can of garbanzos a teaspoon of cumin and salt and red pepper flakes.

This was really yummy. Instead of the oil I added a little lime juice. I also used regular diced tomatoes because the Italian style was too much like a sauce.

Couldn't get canned white and yellow corn seperately so I bought two cans of niblets and threw 'em in also had to omit the pepper due to an allergy. This was pretty good though a refreshing summer salsa that goes great with tortilla chips we've even put it in tacos! Increase the amount of cilantro.

Fabulous recipe! I made it for a recent barbecue and everyone raved. It's light fresh and absolutely delicious. I like things a bit spicy so I added a teaspoon of red pepper flakes. Thanks for sharing!
