Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the black beans, corn, and diced tomatoes with green chilies. Ensure all are well-drained to avoid excess liquid in the dip.
Add the finely chopped red onion, cilantro, and optional jalapeño to the bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, olive oil, ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and salt to create the dressing.
Pour the dressing over the bean and corn mixture.
Gently toss all the ingredients together until well combined. Be careful not to smash the beans.
Cover and refrigerate the dip for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve chilled with tortilla chips, pita chips, or fresh veggies. This dip also works wonderfully as a taco or burrito topping.
