salsa du jour

I like making salsas… They way I make them sometimes, they end up like salads scooped onto a chip, which comes in handy in the summer heat, when I want to still eat healthy, but don’t feel like fixing each and every meal…

Last night I made a new one. I suppose most of my salsas qualify for new, since I seldom work from recipes. I experimented some more this time.

black-eyed peas
tomatillos
sweet red peppers
banana peppers
jalapeno peppers
white and green onions
cilantro
italian parsley
white and apple cider vinegars
sea salt

I have to say, so far, it smells and looks wonderful, but the taste is a bit bland. Perhaps that will improve with another day of sitting…

The look is great, which can sometimes sell me on a food more than the flavor: bright colors, fresh ingredients. Plus, I know the goodness of the food that is in it, so I will put much away still…
