This can easily be made with your favorite store bought salsa or from scratch. Either way is fine, and just as good. This is a great side dish for burrito bowls and also can be served in burritos or on tacos. Serves 2.
Ingredients:
- 1 Cup frozen corn
- 1/4 Cup chopped sweet onion
- 1/4 Cup Chopped red pepper
- 1 Jalapeno seeded and chopped (optional)
- 1 Scallion chopped
- 1/3 cup store bought salsa*
- 1 Tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 Tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro or parsley
- S & P to taste
Directions:
Cook corn according to package instructions and drain. Mix it with the remaining ingredients, reserving a pinch of the herbs for garnish. Refrigerate for 1/2 hour or more to allow flavors to mingle. Serve cold.
*Instead of the store bought salsa, use 1/3 cup tomato sauce mixed with 1/4 teaspoon (or more) ground cumin and 1/4 teaspoon chili powder and a splash of siracha.
