Corn Salsa

Recipe Description

This Corn Salsa is a vegan dream. Use this recipe inside your tacos and burritos or just enjoy it as a salad on its own. With so many delicious and juicy salad ingredients, this dish can be filling enough too.

I like to use corn for the base of the salsa with chopped tomatoes and spring onions and seasoned with coriander, red chili, olive oil, salt and limes. Get out your sombreros! I can already smell the party!

To make Corn Salsa, you will need the following ingredients:

Corn salsa is legit the best type of salsa you can have, this and the fresh corn salsa aren't too different though.
