Salsa

                                 Homemade Salsa


Our garden has been ridiculous this year. We are giving away lettuce, tomatoes and zucchini on a daily basis. We had so many tomatoes, even after giving it away, that we needed to do something with them. Salsa it was!!!  My husband makes amazing salsa, but I decided the girls and I should try our hand at it.  It was a fun time, used our tomatoes and was pretty good at the same time.

Salsa
  • 10 fresh tomatoes
  • 18 tomatillos
  • 2 onions
  • 1/4 cup minced garlic
  • 3 Tablespoons cilantro
  • 2 Tablespoons sugar
  • Salt to taste



Take out as many seeds as you can from the tomatoes.  Chop everything to smaller sizes and blend in the food processor.  The sugar and salt are to taste. It also is dependent upon tomatoes you use.
It is fun any easy to do. Healthy as well. Get the kids involved.  Make a mess and make memories. 

Was of course great with chips, but we also put on soft tacos that night.  We didn't need to add tomatoes or onions like normal.  The salsa gave us the flavor that was needed.
