Salsa

My sister-in-law made this salsa for me one night years ago and I was hooked forever.  Growing up in Texas allows you to try and experiment with many types of salsa.  This one is super easy to make and delicious.  Thanks Tam.

*All ingredients are organic

1 can organic diced tomatoes
Big handful of cilantro
4 green onions
1 t. organic minced garlic in the jar (I usually use fresh organic garlic for everything but, this recipe taste better this way)
Sea Salt to taste

Instructions:

1. Place all of the ingredients into a food processor and pulse 4 times. You want this salsa to be blended but, still a bit chunky. If you blend the salsa too much it changes the taste so don’t over do it.

2. Serve with your favorite tortilla chips.

*Make sure that your tortilla chips are organic, there is a lot of GMO corn out there.

Enjoy!

Black Bean Salsa

blackbeansalsa

I love salsa of any kind and this one is a staple in my house.  When I was pregnant with my boys I ate this every week.  The black beans are such an amazing source of protein and fiber at 15 grams each.  They are rich in antioxidants due to their vibrant color coating and contain omega 3 fatty acids too.  Put the leftovers in the fridge because it is better on day two.
