Quick Summer Recipe: Corn Salsa

One of Jer's favorite's is when I make this corn salsa.  The guy can put down some corn salsa and tortilla chips.  I secretly think he should have been Latin, too.  :)  He L.O.V.E. loves it.  I make it maayyyybe once every two months.  If he's lucky.  

But since it's summer and it's very light and healthy I decided I'd make it more often this summer.  I've actually made it twice this summer.

When I say its easy that means there's no cooking, blender action or baking.  Just some plain ol' cutting of some veggies/a corn bag, shaking (your salt) and squeezing (your lime) involved.  
Here's what you'll need:  

sweet corn * avocado * lime * cilantro * onion * salt * tomato * black beans (optional)

Most times, I add a can of black beans to it but I didn't have any on hand.  
 Once your veggies are cut, you mix everything together.  Annnd....wholla!  You have yourself some delicious refreshing corn salsa to add to any meal or just eat alone with some chips.
 This evening, we included it as a side to our meal.  Steak, white beans & brown rice (short grain which has the most nutrients) and corn salsa.  It was....Perfecto!
