Ingredients

    2 15 oz cans of black beans
    1 cup corn kernels
    1/2 cup peach salsa, drained of extra liquid
    1 teaspoon cumin
    1 teaspoon chili powder
    cayenne to taste
    1/4 tsp salt
    2 oz shaved cheese (cheddar, colby jack, etc)

Tips

Roll in crushed tortilla chips prior to baking for an extra crunch.


Directions

Crush beans in a large mixing bowl with a potato masher (just crushed to break them up; do not totally mash). Mix in corn, salsa and spices. Mix well.

Form balls of 2 Tbsp of bean mixture and lay onto wax paper. Preheat oven to 425. Let balls set up while oven preheats, or 10 - 15 minutes. Bake for 20 minutes, then top each ball with a shaving or two of cheese. Bake for a few minutes more until cheese is melted.
