Most Amazing Black Bean Salsa

Hello everyone!!! I am hoping SOMEONE noticed I have been missing from the blogging world. Along with numerous vacations and adventures, we also have experienced some serious computer problems. However, now that I am up and running I am hoping to catch everyone up by doing a blog almost daily... so prepare yourselves.

OK!!! Now this is the most incredible salsa. It has a secret ingredient... Balsamic Vinager, that I think makes it extra special. It is tangy with just a little bit of spice. Enjoy



Ingredients

1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed well
1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn, drained well
1 onion finely diced
1 bunch finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 (7 oz.) can green salsa verde
Juice of 1 lime
½ teaspoon cumin
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
Salt and pepper to taste

Mix all of the ingredients together in a medium bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Let the salsa marinate for a few hours. Before you serve it drain about half the liquid out of it. Enjoy!
