Spicy Bean and Corn Salsa Side

Our whole family loves this quick and easy side dish. I serve it with tacos, sloppy joes, or picnic meals… Great for potlucks because you serve it cold. Easily adjusted to your individual taste by using your favorite salsa. I often double this for church potlucks or company - it makes a lot to serve as a side and stretch a meal. I usually skip the onions and peppers when making it for guests. I rated this myself for ease and because it is a go-to recipe in my house.

One of most clear way to choose a side dish is to look at your main dish (pasta, chicken, seared tofu) and choose something different. If you’re cooking pasta, go for a simple healthy dish . Making steak? Go for more light. If you’re making stir-fry with rice, it must not a good idea to also make a rice salad.

One make sure is also can make to cooking process . You don’t want to overcommit your oven by making to do list three dishes at once in there, or be rounding four pans on the stovetop . But often you can made a dish do more often .
