I love salsa!
Just about as much as I like chips,
and if you know me….
you know I can’t pass up chips!
Making fresh tomato salsa isn’t hard.
I roast the tomatoes and a jalapeño pepper on a grill pan or outdoor grill
I dice the jalapeño,
cut up the tomatoes,
add 1/2 white onion diced,
a bunch of fresh cilantro chopped
lime, juiced
and a dash of salt
I typically use 6 tomatoes to one jalapeño pepper for a mild to medium salsa.
Makes Taco Tuesday even better!
I love the small tacos,
simple and delicious.
Grilled chicken, white onion, cilantro.
Grilled chicken, white onion, cilantro.
Blue corn chips (YUM!)
Simple white rice with black beans.

We always have blue corn chips and homemade salsa in our house (except for when we end up running out of the wonderful salsa). It always tastes best homemade.
