Spring Salsa

Happy Happy Spring!!!

I just love Spring-time!  It makes me so happy to see all the new little leaves on the trees and flowers on the ground starting to pop out!

This past Saturday was just gorgeous (sunny 70 degree weather here in NH) and we were invited to our first BBQ of the season at the Rice's house (love those guys!).  I offered to bring Spring Salsa and S'mores Brownies (no worries, this recipe will be posted soon).

Spring Salsa is super easy to make and VERY yummy yummy.

Spring Salsa

Ingredients:

1 large can of SWEET corn

2-3 plum tomatoes, chopped (or a couple handfuls of cherry tomatoes, chopped)

1 ripe avocado, peeled and chopped

1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped

juice of 1 lemon

salt and pepper to taste

1/4 cup cilantro, finely chopped

Directions:

Combine all ingredients except cilantro.  Refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving.  Sprinkle with cilantro just before serving.

Serve with yellow or blue corn chips.

Variations:  Black beans, chick peas,  chopped peppers (red, orange, green or yellow) or cucumbers are all great additions to this salsa.

Happy Spring Salsa Making!
