While this isn't a salsa recipe in the truest sense, it does, in my families opinion, make your favorite store bought, or homemade salsa better! Add a few ingredients of choice and get the nice sweet flavor of fresh vegetables and herbs into the mix. A summer favorite that can be enjoyed all the time on anything! Ingredients:
2 1/2 cups salsa (store bought or homemade) |
1/3 spanish onion (white) |
2 stalks celery |
1/3 cup cucumber |
1/2 red bell pepper |
1/2 yellow bell pepper |
1/2 orange bell pepper |
1/2 green bell pepper |
1 mango |
12 cherry tomatoes |
1 bunch cilantro |
cumin |
Directions:
1. Nothing simpler than cutting your vegetables to the size you desire, small, medium or large (medium is my families favorite size), and adding them with the mango into a large bowl containing the salsa.
2. Cilantro is to taste, but we usually use about a handful from the garden, leaving out the stems. If it's out of season, an entire fresh pack from the grocer will do the trick. Chop and add to the mix.
3. Cumin is an acquired taste from what I've been told, but we love it. Again, put in as much or as little as you want, but we usually add about 3 tablespoons.
4. You'll just about double the amount of salsa that you had, if you use the larger 2 1/2 cup size jars that are available at the grocer.
5. It's thicker in consistency, but goes great on everything!
