Tomatillo Salsa
TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 20 min.
YIELD: 2-1/4 cups.
Dare to deviate from tomato salsa and try this tomatillo-based version for a deliciously addictive change of pace. It’s fantastic on its own with tortilla chips or served as a condiment alongside a variety of meats. —Lori Kostecki, Wausau, Wisconsin
