Black Bean Salsa

grrrynx's Note:

There are many black bean salsa recipes listed on here, but I didn't see any quite like this. This is a wonderful recipe that was given to me several years ago by a friend. I always double and it's still gone in a flash at get-togethers and I get asked for the recipe every time. You can always add more of the ingredients that you really like (I always add more lime juice & garlic). We like to serve with tortilla chips or pita chips, but it's also a great relish over chicken or fish. I also sometimes make this to mix with rice. Enjoy!

I made this yesterday to go with our smoked beef tacos and it worked perfectly. It was a nice cool addition to the hot and spicy tacos. I made as posted except I subbed fresh parsley for the cilantro ~ personal preference. Thanks for posting!
