Fresh Tomatillo Salsa
This fresh tomatillo salsa is bright and fresh and the perfect topping for tacos, chicken, or to eat with chips. How did I come up with this recipe, you ask! Well, I created it since the grocery store was all out of avocados. Not a single one was to be found. Seriously. I was at the grocery store and they were totally out of avocados, so I walked the produce section until I found something inspiring – tomatillos to the rescue!

- 4 tomatillos
- 1 red onion
- 1/2 cup of cilantro
- 2 roma tomatoes
- 1/2 a lime juiced
- 1 teaspoon of sriracha
- 1 garlic clove
- salt to taste
First, you want to wash all of your produce. Then, in a glass dish, juice lime and add in the garlic and sriracha.
Chop the onions and add them to marinate in the juices.
Then, dice up the tomatillos, tomatoes, and cilantro. I only use the meaty skin and outer layer on the tomatoes (I scoop out the insides). This helps to keep the salsa from turning to mush. Just a little salsa tip.
Add in some salt to taste and you’re all set.
