FRESH TOMATO SALSA WITH CUMIN

This tomato salsa has a fresh taste with depth of flavor! I made this as an experiment one day after having many leftover tomatoes from another recipe and recently being on a cumin kick. It got rave reviews from some picky eaters! It's best to use rubber gloves when handling hot peppers.

AVOCADO TOMATILLO SALSA

This spectacularly simple green sauce may be the perfect summer condiment. It requires no cooking, only takes 10 to 15 minutes to make, looks gorgeous, and tastes amazing with anything grilled and most things that aren't. Spoon over grilled pork tacos, grilled meats, or serve with chips.
