Who doesn’t love snacking? I know we do and we do it often! There is just something about eating with hands. Hand reaches to chip, to salsa and dip, to veggies (a least one son’s hand does) to hungry mouths that await anxiously. Snack, snack, smack! Yes, that was my boys!
They tend to get a little overzealous with chips and snacks and anything they can make a loud, mouthy sound with. I love my boys..but let’s keep it quiet, okay? This lip smacking Black Bean Salsa was just another noise in the bowl app, awaiting my hungry boys. I adapted the recipe from a can of Bush’s Best Black Beans!
You may need to double the recipe, depending how many and how hungry the troops are. I served them with Tostito’s Scoops and Cheez-It Grooves Sharp White Cheddar Crackers.
