One of my all time favorite snacks are chips and salsa, no matter if it's summer, spring or winter time. The freshness of this delicious salsa pairs beautifully with the baked whole wheat tortilla chips I make at home. It's great in tacos, on eggs, perfect to take for a potluck or to barbecues, and not to mention- football season is back, which would also be great to serve on game day. Most recently I topped off this beautiful salsa on my baked chicken taquitos ( recipes on the blog) and I have to say it really completed the dish. It's super simple to make, very delicious and best of all- it's fresh, and nothing beats fresh. I also really love the texture of the salsa as well! It's definitely a much healthier option than popping open a bag of fried chips. Once you've put together your salsa allow it to sit in your refrigerator for at least 30 minutes- and that's when the magic happens. By letting it sit in your fridge it allows the natural juices of the ingredients to release which makes for a much better salsa. Once you make your own salsa at home, I bet you won't want any of the store bought stuff. Enjoy!
