Tastes like i put so much effort into it. sooooo good. Thank you so much for posting. -
This was almost just too easy! The black bean really jazz up the regular ol' salsa. I served it with Recipe #60316 for a nice and light dinner. I will be making this again! Made for Zaar Stars -
Silly easy is right but OH SO GOOD! I made this for my DS's surprise birthday party tonight (shhh don't tell him yet) and had to sample my food before serving. Oh this is heavenly. I love black beans and have mixed them in with other things but have never thought to do this! It just makes the salsa oh so very special! Thanks for sharing this Zaar Star!!! ***** -
Made for ZWT5, Groovy Gastronomes. Photos are in Cooking Photos Forum (http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewtopic.zsp?p=4540988#4540988). As Brooke said, it doesn't get much easier or thriftier ... and yes, tastes wonderful. I made two versions, one with commercial salsa (Newman's Own) and one with a ZWT5 salsa recipe. Most commercial salsas are cooked as part of the bottling process, so the salsa chunks are a bit soft, compared to the raw ingredient salsas (a grilled vegetable salsa would be intermediate in texture). By using different salsas or by adding chile peppers, you can alter the texture and the heat of this recipe any way you like. I pureed about 1/3 of the drained black beans to provide some adhesion without adding a lot of liquid. Great recipe, Brooke, thanks for posting! -
You're right... why didn't I think of this great dip. Served tonight to company, they loved it and wondered why BakinBaby didn't think of it too!!! Go figure, made for stars... so glad I did, thanks Brooke.Another brooke star.

<br>I have been a member of Zaar for awhile now and found that I love it! I have tried so many recipes and many new foods that I never would have without Zaar.
<br>
<br>I work full-time at a university in Wisconsin, it allows me to travel a bit and see the rest of the state, I work with a lot a great people and am really happy in my job.
<br>
<br>When I'm not working, I spend time with my hubby and 12 year old son. My son has picked up my love for cooking, a few of the things he makes are - naan bread, cookies, and quick breads, I'm so proud of him! In our family we also have two cocker spaniels, our puppy Laci (above) and Peanut, that we adore like they were our children.
<br>
<br>We live in an old farm house that we are remodeling (did the library and the kitchen so far....) on the outskirts of town. Close enough where my hubby can bike to work in the summer, but far enough away from campus that we don't have to lock down our lawn ornaments in fear of college pranks!
