Corn Salsa and other simple appetizers
Looking for a Corn Salsa recipe. I've made a corn/black bean with cilantro and fresh salsa for ages. Want a new take on it.
Maybe a second dip good with tortilla chips. For a casual bbq. Or really any easy, yummy appetizer.
What about a fruit salsa to balance your usual, like a mango or a papaya salsa? Or perhaps just add some diced mango to your corn and black bean. I bet that would be great!

This is a delicious corn salsa:
2 ears grilled corn, cooled, and shucked
approx. 12 cherry tomatoes, quartered (use more or less based on the color you want for finished product)
2 jalepeno or serrano peppers, seeded and finely diced
1 avocado, diced
juice from 2 limes
salt, to taste
cilantro, chopped (approx. 1/2 cup or to taste)
Combine all.
