Recipes
Summertime veggies make the best salsa on earth! After making this recipe with my own organically grown peppers and tomatoes, plus fresh lime juice, I just can’t face bottled salsa again! This recipe comes from Anne Crosman in the Red Hat Society Cookbook.
Annie’s Sassy Salsa
INGREDIENTS
8 large tomatoes, chopped
Juice of 4 limes
5 tablespoons lime zest
1 to 2 hot peppers, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 to 2 garlic cloves, chopped
1 bunch cilantro, chopped
½ cup vinegar, white or apple cider
DIRECTIONS
Mix all ingredients together and let marinate at room temperature for one hour. Then refrigerate.
Enjoy!
