Sassy Salsa

I just love me some good salsa, don’t you?  Especially when I can get my hands on fresh, ripe tomatoes…especially heirloom.  Our farmers market close by my house had the last of the bucket heirloom tomatoes just a month or so ago…yes, we still are growing them over here.  So I snatched them up…and made so many yummy and wonderful things with them…including this easy, fast and delicious salsa.

Paired with my Homemade chips below…you can’t beat this snack, appetizer or heck…add cheese and make it a meal of nachos!

Sassy Salsa

Ingredients:

1 sweet onion

1 jalapeño or 1 small can

3 cloves minced garlic

1-2 tomatoes (heirloom if in season), diced

2 yellow tomatoes, diced

Garlic salt

Lemon Juice

Add:

2 drops dōTERRA lime essential oil

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2 drops dōTERRA cilantro essential oil

Add all ingredients together in bowl. Puree 1/2 of the ingredients in food processor until smooth. Add to remaining salsa, stir to incorporate. Add your doTERRA essential oils, stir to incorporate.  Pour and serve with your favorite homemade tortilla chips.

Homemade Tortilla Chips

I like to take some of my leftover Homemade Tortillas and make chips with them.  And…I bake them y’all.  I know, I know…but I DO try and limit my fat intake somewhat.

This is so easy…..

Ingredients:

Leftover Flour or Corn Tortillas (mine are flour)

Salt (I like the coarse sea salt variety-[easyazon_link asin="B00B42IJ56" locale="US" new_window="default" nofollow="default" tag="simplivisim09-20"]where to buy[/easyazon_link])

Directions:

Cut your tortillas into equal pie sections.

Spread out on a baking sheet that has been sprayed with Pam.

Preheat oven to 350.

I like to salt my chips now…bake…salt again. Yes, yes I like salt!

Bake 10-12 minutes (flipping over to crisp other side half-way through)…watch these little guys.  They brown up and burn real fast.
