Roasted Corn and Black Bean Salsa

Submitted by Surround Sound

"Roasted corn and fresh ingredients make this salsa a delicous snack with chips, or a great topper for any of your mexican/spanish dishes. I made it for some friends on "Fiesta Night", there were NO left overs- They were eating it by the spoonfuls! I hope you enjoy it just as much as we did. Also has a very light and fresh flavor."
