  • 1 can white shoepeg corn drained
  • 3/4 cup salsa verde

Method
 

Directions:
  1. Start by draining and rinsing the black beans and white beans thoroughly. This will help remove excess sodium and enhance the flavor of your dip. Drain the white shoepeg corn as well.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the black beans, white beans, and white shoepeg corn.
  3. Pour in the salsa verde and mix everything together. This adds a zesty kick and moisture to the dip.
  4. Next, fold in the shredded Colby Jack cheese, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
  5. Now it’s time to add the chopped Roma tomatoes. Make sure you've squeezed out the liquid beforehand to prevent the dip from becoming too watery.
  6. Sprinkle in the garlic salt, adjusting to your taste preferences. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
  7. For the best flavor, let the dip chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully. When ready to serve, top with diced avocado for a fresh finishing touch.

Notes

  • Feel free to add fresh cilantro for a burst of flavor.
  • For a spicy kick, incorporate chopped jalapeños.
  • This dip can be made in advance and stored in the fridge for up to three days.
