Cowboy Caviar

Story:
Another one from good ol' Sarah E. In our Utah neighborhood, we would try to have little outside dinner parties with other families now and then. She brought this to Zak & Kelly's one time, and I thought I was in love! I had found a new favorite. Sarah called it Black Bean Salsa; Kelly dubbed it "Cowboy Caviar." Great summer treat (when tomatoes are a'growin'!) to take to a BBQ or something.

Ingredients:
1 can black beans
1 can shoepeg corn
1 can diced green chilies
4-5 tomatoes, diced
2-3 avocadoes, chopped
chopped red onion (to taste)
chopped cilantro (to taste)
lime juice (about 1 lime)
2 T white wine vinegar
salt (to taste)

Directions:
Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Sample. Add onion, cilantro, salt, or lime juice to taste. Sample again. Adjust. Sample some more.

Serve with tortilla chips.
