Fresh Corn Salsa

Fresh Corn Salsa is a simple Tex Mex appetizer that’s made with fresh corn, jalapeños, and other fresh ingredients. This easy salsa makes a great appetizer or topping for tacos or burritos.

I love Mexican food! There is a local chain that has great Tex Mex. Honestly, I would eat there almost every night if I could.

They make their own tortillas, and they have yummy (reasonably priced) food.I like pretty much everything about the restaurant.

The only thing that it’s missing is the corn salsa.Fresh Corn Salsa (not sure why it’s “salsa”) is delicious in its simplicity. Since there are so few ingredients, it’s key to use really fresh produce.

It only takes a few minutes to throw together and doesn’t require any cooking, which makes it a great, summer-y choice. It is delicious in burritos, on salads, or just eaten with chips.
