Black Bean Salsa

The other day I made some Black Bean Salsa to accompany the Chicken Tortilla Soup we were having for dinner. It was meant to provide a tangy fresh, contrast to the creamy texture of the soup.

It turned out really good. My husband even surprised me by having more than just one serving. He doesn’t usually like, black beans, bell peppers, fresh tomatoes or even cilantro for that matter (haha…I just realised the only ingredient he doesn’t usually mind in the salsa was the onion). I probably would have even added some avocado if I had any at home…so when you try this recipe, don’t forget the avocado. 😉
