This salsa is made with only a few natural ingredients and is delicious! You can attempt a lot of different things in this and improvise a lot. Although it is a tremendous hit when served right away, it gets even better with time. I enjoy eating this alone or with chips, eggs, or pretty much anything else. To make it as nutritious as possible, use as little salt as you can, and recommend using a lot of scoops per chip.

Ingredients
- 4 medium tomatoes, chopped
- 3 stalks celery, chopped
- 1 medium bell pepper, diced
- 1 medium sweet onion, diced
- 1 medium jalapeno pepper, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- ½ cup corn kernels
- ½ (14.5 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
- Combine tomatoes, celery, bell pepper, onion, jalapeno, garlic, cilantro, corn, black beans, lime juice, cumin, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Serve immediately or refrigerate up to 2 days.
- You can substitute lemon juice for lime juice.
- This recipe is a medium-intensity spice. If you like spicier, double the jalapenos.
- As you increase the servings of this recipe, I’d recommend getting different colors of bell peppers (red, orange, yellow, green) to add a lot of flavor and color to the recipe.
