Build Your Own Salsa-White Bean & Radish Salsa

I love making salsa, especially non traditional versions of salsa like this white bean and radish salsa! Salsa is made using lots of fresh vegetables and herbs.  It's a perfect appetizer and snack anytime!  I created this version, because I had an abundance of radishes from a school garden.  Radishes are a great topping for salads, tacos, even pickled, but my favorite way to eat them is in this salsa!  White beans adds some protein which makes it an extra healthy, nutrient rich snack.  

To build your own salsa, chose your base, then add fillings, herbs and seasonings. Eat with chips (of course)!
Base: Tomatoes, watermelon, pineapple, black beans, corn, radishes
Filling (Choose one or more): celery, cucumber, onions, peppers
Herbs & Seasonings:  parsley, cilantro, mint, dill
Seasonings:  lemon or lime zest or juice, salt, cumin, cayenne pepper, red pepper flakes

If making this with kids, check out my favorite book Chicks and Salsa!
