Summer Salsa

One of my favorite things about summer is making fresh salsa. This recipe can be tweeked to meet your needs and the needs of your family.

Here is the basic fresh salsa recipe

Basic Salsa
2 cups chopped tomatoes
1/3 cup chopped yellow, green or white onion
2 tablespoons fresh chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons lime juice
1 to 2 jalapeño
Salt to taste

Now that recipe is amazing and delicious as is. BUT there are some variations that really take it to the next level!

Thick Salsa
Same recipe as above + 1 6oz can of tomatoe paste

Tropical Salsa
Same recipe as above, but instead of tomatoes use fresh pineapple, peaches or mango.

Salsa Add In's

• Steam one fresh ear of corn. Cut the corn from the cob and stir it into the basic salsa.
• Drain and rinse 1 can of black beans. Add to basic salsa
• Use a combination of tomatoes and mangos or tomatoes and pineapple.
• If you like your salsa sweet, stir in a teaspoon of sugar

This recipe is only limited by your imagination!!!!
