This is the salsa I always make if I am ever hosting a party, or need to bring a side dish, or just want salsa! We also like to hand this out as a Christmas goodie instead of the traditional plate of cookies/baked good. It is YUMMY by the spoonfuls, next to scrambled eggs, and of course on your favorite brand of chips. If you want a guaranteed crowd pleaser, or just some tasty summer treat, TRY THIS!

Yummy Salsa:

In a blender:

1- 28 oz. can of crushed tomatoes w/ garlic (or your favorite base - home grown tomatoes would be delish!)
3 - cloves of garlic, minced
1 - bunch of clilantro leaves, chopped (I really really like cilantro)
1 - jalapeno pepper. -this is to taste as every pepper is different - don't just add the whole thing, you might be sorry! I usually always take a small bite of the pepper to see what I'm dealing with.

BLEND WELL, and sample.

Add:

1- bunch of green onions, chopped
1- can of sweet corn, drained
1- can of black beans, rinsed
2- avacodos, cut in cubes
1-2 tomatoes, diced
1/2 lime, sqeezed (mmm, I really like the smell/taste of limes too!)
1- can of pinapple chunks, drained (DO IT, even if you're not sure!)
1/2 mango, chopped (optional/when in season)

This is the perfect mixture, w/ hot and sweet.
MMM. Enjoy. This lasts about 2 days in our house! :)
