Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 pounds tomatoes (vine-ripe, roma or heirloom), cored and quartered -- I like Roma best for texture
1/2 medium yellow onion, roughly chopped
1 green onion, ends trimmed
2-3 cloves of garlic, finely chopped
2 jalapeños (with seeds If you like heat!), diced
1 heaping handful of cilantro (about 1/2 cup)
Half a lime, juiced
Pinch of cumin
Pinch of sugar
Salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Add all ingredients to a blender or food processor and pulse until it gets to the desired consistency; you can make it chunky or smooth! I like a little bit of texture so I go with slightly chunky. Add salt to taste. Chill salsa for 1-2 hours or overnight to let flavors come together. Serve with chips, on nachos, on chili, or anything you like!

CHICKEN & SPINACH ENCHILADAS



Chicken & Spinach Enchiladas image

Great weeknight dinner, with the seasoned chicken flavor without having to pre-cook and shred chicken! I use a friend's salsa recipe for this (http://www.justapinch.com/recipes/sauce-spread/dip/jackies-salsa.html), but you could use any salsa you like. (But make the homemade - it's super easy and super good!). Get out some chips...
