Salsa Verde

One of our friends scored a box of tomatillos from a local grocery store.  This is a big deal because we have not seen them on the island...ever.  We all pitched in and bought several kilos of tomatillos. We had to go to the back entrance of our friend's house to pick up the private stock. It was all very clandestine.

We baked the tomatillos, jalapenos, onion and garlic until blackened. We threw everything in the blender and made a luscious salsa verde. Super easy and very tasty.

 

We dined on bacon wrapped, cream cheese stuffed jalapenos, salsa verde and corn chips. We have recipes for a salsa verde chicken casserole and enchiladas. It is always exciting to us to score something new and spicy. Now we have a dealer where we can score special ingredients.
