Happy Cinco De Mayo!

I know that it's actually not a holiday, but at least it gives us an excuse to have fun on a Monday!



Tomatillo Salsa Verde Recipe


Ingredients

1 1/2 lb tomatillos
1/2 cup chopped white onion
1/2 cup cilantro leaves
1 Tbsp fresh lime juice
1/4 teaspoon sugar
2 Jalapeño peppers, stemmed, seeded and chopped
Salt to taste

Method

1 Remove papery husks from tomatillos and rinse well. Cut in half and place cut side down on a foil-lined baking sheet. Place under a broiler for about 5-7 minutes to lightly blacken the skin.

2 Place tomatillos, lime juice, onions, cilantro, Jalapeño peppers, sugar in a food processor (or blender) and pulse until all ingredients are finely chopped and mixed. Season to taste with salt. Cool in refrigerator.

Serve with chips or as a salsa accompaniment to Mexican dishes.

Makes 3 cups.

On a more positive note, I decided to go with this instead. I will be so glad to have it later and wear forever instead of just 2 months. It's a good thing I finally did it. I went back to look at the yellow and noticed that the green is now gone.
I tried to order what could (possibly) be my last maternity purchase, got an order confirmation then this message below. POOR!
