I’ve been a little lax with the posts for a week or so, but for good reason!  I had to spend a little time doing some Mexican food research 🙂

Researching Mexican food is really hard work, but someone’s got to do it.  And I’m happy to be that person.   You’re welcome.

This salsa recipe was mind-bogglingly easy.  And it gave me another opportunity to put that new Ninja blender to work.

The entire batch only lasted about an hour in our house.  And if you just make a point of not thinking about all those chips that you eat with it, then it’s really really healthy.

I suppose there are other options besides chips.  But nothing is as good as a tortilla chip with your salsa.  Tortilla chips and salsa were invented to make people happy.

And man, isn’t it beautiful??

Every time we eat at a Mexican restaurant, they bring the standard chips and salsa for the table. And every time, I demolish the tiny little salsa container on like four chips, and I desperately want to ask them if they can just go ahead and bring me six cups of salsa right from the get-go.  But I never do… because that feels awkward.  Best thing about having found this recipe – now I don’t have to stress, I can just make as much as I want and eat it like a lunatic.

Sure enough, this recipe came from yet another trusty food blog.  Thanks to Ali from Gimme Some Oven for making this available to the world.  It’s a keeper.

And a big thank you to Mexico for salsa.  Thanks guys.

Without further ado.  Here’s a link to Restaurant Style Salsa on Gimme Some Oven.

And just for fun… a filtered photo that I really liked:
