For an extra layer of flavor, consider grilling the corn before adding it to the mix. The smoky char adds a wonderful depth.
If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a finely minced serrano pepper.
To prevent the dip from becoming too watery, ensure that the beans and tomatoes are well-drained before adding them.
For a creamier texture, try adding a diced avocado just before serving.
