Anyone have a good black bean appetizer recipe? I have dried black beans soaking right now.... can't seem to find anything tasty-looking on the net. Me and the li'l one are having movie night tonight and she loves black beans, and I wanted to surprise her with something new.... Here is one I make that she loves>

Black Bean Salsa

2 cans mexi-corn, drained
2 cans black beans, rinsed and drained
4 avacadoes, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 can ro-tel, undrained if you like spicy
Chopped parsley or cilantro
Chopped onion
squeeze of lemon
other seasonings to taste

Combine all and serve with chips

(at least I think that is what it is, I always seem to throw a bunch of stuff in a bowl.... hehehe)
