# Expert Hints:

01 -
  • It comes together in minutes with almost zero prep—one of those impossibly easy, delicious tricks worth keeping secret.
  • The colors and flavors are so fresh, it always feels celebratory even when you’re just snacking solo.
02 -
  • If you skip rinsing the beans, the dip can turn muddy and lose that bright color.
  • Swapping pico de gallo for a chunky salsa totally transforms the flavor, so consider both options based on your mood.
03 -
  • The best flavor comes from using fresh pico de gallo, but don’t stress if you only have jarred salsa.
  • Stir gently to keep the beans and corn from breaking; it’s all about preserving those textures.
