You can eat salsa with just about anything—except for maybe chocolate cake. Spread it on top of bread, combine it with chips, mix it with scrambled eggs, eat it alone, use it as salad dressing… you get my point. Let your imagination be uninhibited, and the options are endless.
I dare to foresee some entertaining in your near future, thanks to the upcoming holidays. And a gathering isn’t complete without some fresh, homemade salsa. Make sure you have the best for your hungry guests, complete with veggies and flat bread for dipping, as opposed to the tired potato or corn chips.

- 1 13-oz. can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 3 T. extra-virgin olive oil
- ½ c. thinly sliced green onions

Simple! In a bowl, toss the beans with olive oil. Then, add the rest of the ingredients. Ahhh, fresh and guilt free! What a great start to the hectic holiday season. Enjoy!
