My Saturday Afternoon Craving!


Loungin' around the house today being very unproductive...I began to crave salsa and chips.  I usually have a jar of salsa in the house at all times, but not today.  So I decided to make this super simple salsa to calm my craving.
My grandparents gave us some fresh corn on the cob yesterday. I microwaved one small ear for 2 min. in husk, cooled and cut it off the cob. I then added 1 chopped tomato from Grammy's garden, not mine (damn it), and a small onion, rinsed a can of black beans, and added some chopped parsley from my organic herb garden.  Although, cilantro would be great if your family is a fan of it. Squeeze 1/2 small lemon, add salt and pepper and a dash or two of Crystal sauce.
Garnish with a dollop of sour cream.  Serve with blue corn chips.  And there it is!  Fast, delish, and healthy salsa to satisfy my Saturday afternoon craving!

  1. Yum Cheri! That looks awesome. We are enjoying a gorgeous day up here in NC and bbq-ing outside. Some fresh salsa sounds pretty great right about now! I also so miss the fresh corn down there in SoFl!
