My Favorite Corn Salsa
- 1-2 mangos, hedge hogged 😉
- 2 bell peppers, chopped
- 2 12 oz. bags of frozen corn, strained in warm water to thaw
- chili powder to taste
- juice of ½ lime!
mix in a lovely large bowl and eat the whole thing!!! Ya, it’s that good.
Brown Rice:
- cauliflower
- hemp seeds
process in food processor, make it more delicious by adding cashews or walnuts! Maybe even try grated zucchini dried in a towel! Mmm!
Mild Red Salsa:
- 2 roma tomatoes (cubed) (how to dice a tomato!)
- 1 jalapeno pepper
- 1 garlic clove
- ¼ onion
- appx. ¼ cup cilantro
1. mix tomatoes pepper garlic, and onion in blender
2. add cilantro and mix again
3. add salt to taste
Guacamole
- 3-5 avocados
- Mild Red Salsa (not blended, just cubed)
- Squeeze another lime
mash the avocados in a separate bowl and immediately put lime or lemon juice on avocado to prevent oxidation. Then fold in pico with a rubber spatula and indulge in health filled creamy LDL lowering unsaturated fats! ;D
that Jack Cheez sounds delicious! do you soak the cashews before blending?
Oooo I haven’t made that in a while! I don’t think so, since you add the water, it should all blend together and then it will turn into a cheezy texture as it soaks in the fridge 🙂
