The Good Grub Compilation is here, salsa anyone?

The grub is moving here. As part of Mission Simplicity, the food is coming together with all the other things I love right here!

So... Scott, the suburban farmer, has a bumper crop of tomatoes just wanting to be made into the world's best condiment: SALSA. (yeah, I threw it out there, the WORLD'S BEST!)

I read over a few recipes and then created this concoction.


The before.
I ended up using only Roma tomatoes and shied away from the fresh pepper.
Roughly, the Ingredients:
2 Romas, pureed in the food processor
6 Romas, chopped
1/2 Onion, chopped
1/2 Shallot, chopped
5 Stems worth of Cilantro leaves, chopped
3 Tbl. diced jalapenos, from a jar
1 tsp. Tabasco
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. lime juice
1 tsp. balsamic vinegar

Directions:
Mix everything together.

The after.

After everything was mixed together, I threw in some corn and black beans we had as leftovers and some chopped avocado. It turned out about like a mild salsa. Scott thought it was a little tomato-y, which was okay with me. Maybe more cilantro next time.
