Wow, I have extra peppers and corn from my field trip today to the farmers market.  So what can I make with it?  I decided to score the internet as I love to do and see what others are making with these two things.  And guess what I found? SALSA.  Who doesn’t love a good salsa. And I am not talking about that watered down tomato sauce kind you find in cheap Mexican restaurants.  I’m talking fresh and flavorful.

I found this at Surely Kitchen’s website and decided to change it up a bit.  Mainly the heat and cilantro.  I love salsa, but come on, when I eat salsa I need heat.  Now of course for those of you who don’t you can merely leave out the heat.  Now that I have a big bowl of salsa chilling in the refrigerator, I can make other goodies for the NASCAR race today.

  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can small red kidney beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 can corn, drained
  • 1 can diced tomatoes with green chiles (or with zesty jalapeños)
  • 2 Serrano (or jalapeños) peppers, seeds removed and diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon cilantro
  • 2-3 cloves garlic
  • 1 bell pepper (any color) diced
  • ½ small onion or 1 small shallot

  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic

Add all the ingredients to a bowl and mix to combine. That’s it. Refrigerate until ready to eat.
