Everyone loves a good salsa. And I mean everyone. So if you don’t, then you’re not someone. Or at least you’re not someone cool. Or American. Because salsa is totally American. Mexico who?
I love myself some good spicy salsa. I love all kinds of salsa: thick and chunky, picante saucey, spicy, you name it. If it’s made from tomatoes, it’s calling my name. And you better believe I’ll eat it. All of it.
My recent trips to the farmers market have yielded great end results. This salsa. Just ask my husband. I’ve made large batches of it for two weeks straight now. And I have no plan on stopping.
This salsa is super easy and guilt free. Just be sure to buy the calorie free tortilla chips to go with. They make those right?Pick out about five ripe tomatoes. You’ll want them to be almost too ripe. Grab a green pepper and add a yellow/orange one for fun color if you’d like. I used mini peppers, so if you have full size just use half of the colored one. Chop 1-2 inches off the green onions, then dice up the rest. Grab a handful of cilantro, de-stem (new word?) them, and chop up the leaves.Chop up everything real fine. Dump it all in a bowl and mix. Then try to only eat one bite. I dare you.
Side Note: Have you ever ate your chips and salsa with cream cheese? It is a MUST TRY. Well, if you like cream cheese. And let’s be honest, if you don’t, something’s wrong with you. Seriously, you might want to see a doctor. Unless you’re lactose intolerant. Then I just feel bad for you. Take a scoop of cream cheese, pour salsa over it. Grab some sturdy chips and go to town. Trust me on this. Just try it once.
