Southwestern Salsa with Black Beans, Corn, and Pineapple

Southwestern Salsa with Black Beans, Corn, and Pineapple is a simple recipe that comes together in just 30 minutes. Use this salsa as an appetizer. Or, serve this with cooked shrimp, grilled fish, or grilled chicken.

I'd like to introduce you to my favorite salsa made with black beans, corn, chopped bell peppers, tomatoes, pineapple, cilantro, and lime juice.   Those are very simple ingredients, however, when combined together in this healthy dish, they create a burst of freshness, color, and flavor!

This Southwestern salsa is really tasty and filling (thanks to all the fiber).   It's full of colorful vegetables, as you can see in the photos.  Sometimes I can eat just a bowl of this (and nothing else) for dinner and not be hungry. At other times, I like to add fish or shrimp. This dish is perfect on its own, it's also great as a side dish.  If you make this just once, you will quickly realize that this is a really good recipe to have in your weekly or monthly recipe rotation!
