Black Bean & Corn Salsa

Hello friends!  When we last met, it was the dead of Winter here in Michigan and it was nearly unfathomable to me that Summer would ever come. By some miracle though, it did and is now upon us.  And so, I've decided to come out of hibernation and even try to start blogging some recipes again!  I know, I know.  Try to contain your excitement.

First up this Summer is a wonderful little salsa concoction that I whipped up last weekend.  This was inspired by a black bean and corn salsa that I've purchased previously but have never been able to find a recipe that is comparable.  So I decided to try and create my own.  I was quite pleased with how it turned out.  This would be a great appetizer for summer parties and barbecues!

Quorn Fajitas with Refried Beans and Salsa Verde

I'm not sure what actually defines a tradition fajita, but this is my personal take. I wouldn't dare claim that this recipe is traditional, but it is a mighty tasty Midwesterner's take on Mexican cuisine. The next morning I cracked a few eggs and made the leftovers into delicious huevos rancheros.

This recipe can be broken down into a 3 step process: Salsa Making, Refried Bean Preparation, and the Vegetables and "Meat" of your Fajita.
