Fresh Salsa
Posted on 27 Mar 2013Salsa is something I make a quite frequently with the tomatoes and other veg. I usually have sitting in the fridge and most often it gets eaten with tortilla chips or put on top of nachos.
While the authenticity of my recipe is probably debatable, it’s pretty much a pico de gallo or a kind of salsa fresca.
