Garden Fresh Salsa

“Happiness is a large ripe tomato”

Homemade Salsa with tomatoes from our garden

We had so much success with our garden this year which makes me so happy.  Last year we tried to do plants on our deck and nothing grew due to lack of light.

This year we figured it out!  We built our raised beds where there is loads of sunshine all day.

My youngest is a huge lover of tomatoes so we bought all different varieties of tomatoes – early girls, super sweet, Ida Golds, Plum tomatoes etc.  I can’t even remember how many varieties we have.

Conor will usually pick them straight off the plant and eat them.

Garden Fresh Chilis and Tomatoes

All of our tomatoes and chilis are ripening at the same time!  If this is happening to you I have a super easy salsa recipe.

We also love it on top of grilled chicken and fish.  I hope you’ll try our easy garden fresh salsa!  It is so true that homegrown tomatoes taste the very best.
