Saturday Salsa!

One of my favorite places Saturday morning is the Farmers Market! Growing up it was a weekly trip in the summer gathering all kinds of freshy fresh fruits and veggies to can and to freeze. Today I picked up all these ingredients for some super fresh salsa! I'm allergic to tomatoes so instead I'm using tomatillos which are related but in a different genus so no hives for me! I'm also using annaheim peppers, serrano peppers, hot and sweet hungarian banana peppers, cilantro, onion, garlic, salt, lime, and a teeny jalapeno from my own garden.

One of my favorite places Saturday morning is the Farmers Market! Today I picked up all these ingredients for some super freshy fresh green salsa! I'm allergic to tomatoes so instead I'm using tomatillos. They are related, but in a different genus so no hives for me! I'm also using annaheim peppers, serrano peppers, hot and sweet hungarian banana peppers, cilantro, onion, garlic, salt, lime, and a teeny jalapeno from my own garden.

I make the salsa up into small batches combining them into a large bowl. I never super precise when I cook so every batch is a little different until all the ingredients are gone. I stirred it all together in the end added another splash of lime and a pink of salt and volia! A super fresh snack!

Finished! 3 pints and one quart later I've got plenty of salsa for a quick snack, or to add to chili or other recipes. I stick the jars in the fridge for a couple days and then divide them up into smaller batches for the freezer, that way all the delicious flavors have a little time to mesh! YUM!

Yummy! Did you get that cilantro at the market? We looked all over, but no cilantro for us. I guess the early bird gets the treasure. Can’t wait for drinks in the garden with you!
