There are sooo many other projects I have ready to share with you, but when a family member asks for a recipe...
I must make sure it gets out on the ole blog.
I have had a very prolific garden this year....
We had some of hubby's family in this past weekend and I made another batch of Fresh Homemade Salsa. It's so good and easy!! YUM!!
Fresh Homemade Salsa
1-2 jalapeños - diced fresh or canned
6-8 tomatoes - diced
1 small onion - diced
1 clove garlic - minced
1 handful of cilantro - chopped
1 T. lemon or lime juice
2 T. maple syrup
Chili powder - to taste
Cumin - to taste
Salt - to taste
Pepper - to taste
Mix all ingredients.
I told you it was pretty easy!
I usually ask hubs to be the guinea pig to see if it needs a little more of something. It's really your own preference. I like lots of cilantro, but you might not care for it. You might like it hotter, then add more jalapeños or chili powder. It's very easy to adjust to however you like it.
Enjoy!!
Blessings,
I don't know if it's a yankee thing... but I've always added it... :) Love ya, Sallie!! Let me know if y'all like it!
ReplyDeleteMy tomatoes are dead, but I will find some so I can make this. I love salsa and homemade is the best! I love the maple syrup addition and I'm a huge cilantro fan, too! Pinned it!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteAwww... My tomatoes are now coming in droves!! Can you tell me a person that's in Texas that doesn't like salsa?? They go hand in hand! FYI... If you can't get fresh tomatoes, I've made it with canned diced ones. Not as good as fresh, but not bad at all.
