This Fresh Salsa is super easy and uses fresh ingredients you usually always have on hand.
And a great way to get in more veggies too! Goes well with freshly baked tortilla chips, fish, grilled chicken and in burritos/burrito bowls.
It’s one of our go-to appies we make and bring when going to a party, BBQ, etc. It’s always a big hit!
Try it with my Guacamole and you are sure to have a good crowd pleaser if entertaining, when asked to bring an appie or if you just want to make them for yourself.
Enjoy this Fresh Salsa!
