Zucchini salsa.

Thursday, October 21st, 2010

This was one of those dishes where you just pull some things together that you have around the house and wing it. I started with some corn tortillas and pinto beans and just needed something to kick it into greatness, a fresh salsa! Since I have several new books to pull from this was easy. The salsa did call for vinegar so I was a bit worried it might offend J, I decided to go for it anyway and I’m glad because she loved it! Not to sweet, not to vinegary, it was basically perfect. I did substitute some ingredients, like I used corn instead of a red pepper which I’m glad I did because it’s super tasty that way. This was one of several dishes I’ve made lately that uses cumin which I haven’t really been a major fan of but I think I’m coming around. I’m not a hundred percent sure what else this salsa would be eaten with other than on a taco/burrito? I don’t actually see myself putting it on a tortilla chip but if it only ends up inside a taco/burrito that’s fine by me as it is truly delicious that way.
