Fresh, Homemade Tomatillo Salsa

May 4, 2023

super easy

What is the best green salsa recipe you ask?! Well, in my opinion, its this one!

I recently moved to MI from IL, but while I lived in IL I used to sell baked and homemade goods from my house. Its was such a fun job! My two biggest sellers were homemade cinnamon rolls with a coffee/maple icing and this green salsa! I even once had a women buy 10 jars at once! Crazy!

This salsa is super bright, fresh, and such a great way to celebrate all the fresh, summer vegetables! I also love it because you can easily customize the spice level by either adding, subtracting, or even roasting the jalapeños!

You can use this recipe as a marinade for meat, toppings for tacos, or just to dip your favorite tortilla chips in! The sky is the limit here! This salsa is not canned so it does need to be refrigerated and lasts about 2-3 weeks, if you don’t eat it at first, that is.

I like to store mine in the fridge in a mason jar to ensure it has a tight seal and will last the longest. Most of this salsa is uncooked veggies except the tomatillos, they do need to be roasted at 350 for 20 min. I add in a bunch of cilantro at the end to brighten it up and then my favorite added ingredient is diced green chilis! It gives this salsa some nice depth and really rounds out the entire flavor profile.

Don’t take my word for it, try it for yourself! Make up a batch, share with your friends, and say hello to your new favorite salsa recipe!
