Black Bean Salsa with Avocado Recipe
This black bean salsa with avocado recipe is one of my favorite party dishes. It’s completely addicting and has so much amazing flavor to satisfy. An added bonus? It is easy to make, healthy, and a guaranteed hit with whoever you may be entertaining.
The Fiesta Flats are the perfect crunchy shell to keep each serving nicely contained and easy to pick up. I also like having a second option of clear plastic cups available just in case the guest prefers tortilla chips with black bean avocado salsa; they are also an easy grab and go snack while mingling.
Tip: Rub the bowl with lime juice prior to mixing all your ingredients to help prevent the avocado from browning. In addition, you can rub the plastic wrap with lime before putting it right on top of the salsa. If you have guests who enjoy cheesy dishes, we totally recommend serving this with our Black Bean Cheese Dip!
Black Bean Salsa with Avocado Recipe
Salsa is a dish that requires a lot of ingredients. These ingredients are flavor boosters and consistency mixes. Things like black beans, corn, bell peppers, garlic, cilantro, and more come together to make one of the best dips you’ve ever had.
While you will need a lot of ingredients, you won’t need a lot of each. Just make sure you don’t skip an ingredient, as it may throw off the balance of flavor.
How to Make Black Bean Salsa
To make this Black Bean & Corn Avocado Salsa, mix black beans, corn, tomatoes, red bell pepper, fresh garlic, jalapeno pepper, cilantro, red onion, vinegar, lime juice, tabasco, olive oil, cumin, salt and black pepper in a medium bowl. Next, add avocado and fold into the mixture.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, putting it right on top of the salsa; chill for at least 2 hours.
When you are ready to set up your food for your party, you can bake or microwave the Fiesta Flats and fill them after they have cooled.

*If you prefer your salsa less spicy, then leave out the Tabasco and jalapeno, or the seeds from the jalapeno. Be sure to serve with our easy margarita recipe!
