FUEGO VERDE SALSA



When I make salsa, I try to make only as much as we can eat in a day or two, so I almost always make it in the small food processor attachment that came with my hand blender.  So if you want more than a small batch (enough for two people to dip chips in or pour on tacos for a day or two), then just multiply all the ingredients in proportion to one another and make it in a larger food processor or blender.

Ingredients:
(Makes small batch, about 3/4 cup)

3 jalapenos (less for the tender-tongued)
2 green onions, torn in half
6 or so stalks of cilantro, leaves only
Juice of 1/4 lime
1 tomatillo, cut in half
1 Tbsp. canola oil
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. dried thyme
1 tsp. crushed garlic
1 tsp. - 1 Tbsp. Trader Joe's Green Plant Juice (if you're not familiar, it looks like ground up beetles and is made with kale and broccoli but tastes like mango and bananas)

Directions:

1.  Blend all ingredients in a hand blender food processor attachment until well-blended, approximately 1 minute.  Add more Green Plant juice to taste.

  1. I remember your salsa from MLB, when you brought some in to share. One of the best I have ever tasted! I'm sure this recipe is no different - excited to try it.
