Black Bean Corn Salsa Cracker Bites Ingredient List

Crackers — They are the star ingredient. I am using Ritz whole wheat crackers. However, you can use any other gluten-free crackers or even rice crackers for this recipe. Wheat Thin whole wheat crackers also work great for this recipe.

Roasted red bell pepper Hummus — A layer of the most flavorful red bell pepper hummus works the best, but if you are on a time crunch, you may resort to the store-bought ones.

Cucumber — Peeled and sliced cucumber add crunch and texture to the recipe besides the fresh flavor.

Corn kernels — This recipe calls for fresh corn kernels, but you can easily swap them out for frozen corn kernels or canned ones to relish this treat throughout the year.

Black Beans — They are an integral part of this salsa. You may use canned black beans, but remember to drain and rinse them properly before using them.

Tomatoes — Finely chopped fresh tomatoes add a delightful crunch to the recipe.

Cumin Powder — Freshly roasted cumin powder lends a musky and earthy flavor to the recipe, intensifying its overall taste.

Garlic — The ultimate taste enhancer, garlic adds a flavorful punch and takes the recipe to another level.

Cilantro leaves — Tiny bits of dried cilantro sprinkled over the cracker bites add aesthetic and flavor to the appetizer.

Fresh black beans or Canned ones? You may use either freshly boiled black beans or canned ones, depending on the availability of your choice. However, if both versions are unavailable, you can also use the dried black beans.
