Simple Summer Salsa. Is there anything better? I will go ahead and answer this question for you and say…NO! This is my second installment of my Bloomsbury CSA recipe card contribution. I have absolutely loved creating and contributing recipes for my local farm and CSA. Tomatoes in the south are kind of a sacred thing and something we really look forward to each summer. We are lucky to get access to probably the best around. So if you live in the middle Tennessee area you REALLY need to get your hands on some of these Bloomsbury tomatoes.
I decided to do a really simple summer salsa because this recipe is kind of a staple for us during tomato season and it is SO easy. I also find that I get asked a lot for an easy salsa recipe. Most of the ingredients you use in this is actually in season and you can put this stuff on EVERYTHING…and I mean everything. Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner ALLLLL summer long. My husband plowed through this batch before I even got much of it so be prepared to become a complete salsa addict. So grab some extra tomatoes next time you are at the farmer’s market and throw together a batch of delicious homemade salsa.
Enjoy!

What else is in the salsa? The picture shows something else that looks like sweet potatoes or peaches. I’m not really sure what it is and it doesn’t say anything else in the recipe that it could be.

Those are yellow tomatoes in that recipe.
