I was checking out all of the wonderful veggies I have been given this week and wondering what on earth I could do with them that my family would eat. Salsa is always a winner at our house so this is what I have come up with. My kids loved it! If you let it sit in the fridge for a few hours before eating it the flavors really come together. Ours didn't make it that long, we ate it right away!
Equipment:
Cutting Board
Good knife
Medium size bowl for salsa
small bowl and strainer for tomatoes
