Follow The Directions

01

Step
15 mins

In a large bowl, combine the black beans, corn, black-eyed peas, celery, bell pepper, and green onion. (Prep time: 15 minutes)

02

Step
5 mins

In a saucepan, whisk together the sugar, apple cider vinegar, vegetable oil, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is completely dissolved. (Cook time: 5 minutes)

03

Step
1 hrs

Remove the vinaigrette from the heat and allow it to cool completely. (Cooling time: 1 hour)

04

Step
5 mins

Pour the cooled vinaigrette over the vegetable-bean mixture, stirring gently to ensure everything is well coated.

05

Step
8 hrs

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld together. (Refrigeration time: 8-12 hours)

06

Step
2 mins

Before serving, drain any excess liquid from the salsa.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider grilling the corn before adding it to the salsa. Simply grill the corn kernels until they are lightly charred.
If you prefer a spicier salsa, add a finely diced jalapeño pepper to the vegetable mixture.
The salsa can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
