BLACK BEAN AND CORN RELISH



Black Bean and Corn Relish image

Made this as part of the "pickies" I had out for Mother's Day this year, mostly from ingredients I had on hand. This is delicious with tortilla or pita chips. I have also been taking the leftover with me to work, served over a bed of greens. All spice measurements are approx. I did them all "to taste".
