BROTHER RON'S FRESH MARINATED SUMMER SALSA

• 4. Place in a bowl with airtight lid and let marinate all day. Stir once in a while to distribute all the vegetables in the vinegar.

FRESH TOMATO SALSA

Steps:

• 1. Seed and chop tomatoes. Put in a non-reactive bowl (glass).
• 2. Combine thinly sliced green onions, chopped cilantro, and finely chopped jalapeno (remove the membrane from the jalapeno along with all the seeds if you don't like it too hot).
• 3. Add minced garlic, juice of one lime, chopped tomatillos, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together.
• 4. Cover and reserve until ready to use.

FRESH CORN SALSA

GARDEN FRESH SALSA

Steps:

• 1. Chop up all tomatoes, peppers, and onion. Combine in a large bowl.
• 2. Drain jalapenos (if you're using the green chiles, no need to drain them) and add them to the bowl.
• 3. Roll the lemon & lime on the counter, pressing it with your hand before cutting them in half (you'll get more juice this way). Either use a juicer or squeeze the juice into your hand to catch any seeds.
• 4. If using the optional cilantro, add it to the mixture (about 1/4 - 1/2 cup chopped).
• 5. Add salt and mix well. Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours for flavors to combine well. I usually let it chill overnight.
• 6. Serve with chips (the Scoops tortilla chips work well) or use on anything you put salsa on. I've put in on baked potatoes, on chicken before baking, etc... use your imagination!
