Ingredients
Makes 4 Servings
- low-sodium black beans, drained, liquid reserved (1 25-ounce can)
- low-sodium salsa (1 16-ounce jar or container)
- frozen corn (8 ounces)
- freshly squeezed lime juice (optional)
- fresh cilantro (optional)
- hot sauce (optional)
Directions
-
If using canned beans, drain them and reserve some of the liquid. If making beans from dry, reserve some cooking liquid. Mix drained beans, fresh or frozen corn, and salsa in a 5-quart pot. Add the reserved liquid to reach desired consistency. The more liquid, the “soupier” the chili will become.
-
Cook over medium heat for 10 minutes or until hot. Add optional toppings such as fresh lime juice, chopped cilantro, and/or hot sauce just before serving.
