I have always been an avid salsa lover, but as of late my addiction has become even more intense. Take me to a Mexican restaurant and place a bowl of chips and cup of salsa in front of me and I am a super happy camper.
I’ve never met a salsa I didn’t like. Regular tomato, tomatillo, fruit infused salsas and fruit salsa. I’ve had several different fruit salsas but I think my favorite fruit based salsa is strawberry salsa.
I love the contrast of the super sweet, juicy strawberries with peppery onions and spicy jalapenos. The lime adds a slight tartness and burst of freshness to each bite. Scoop it up on a salty chip and it’s the perfect bite every single time.
This salsa comes together in minutes and is so bright and refreshing. The perfect appetizer for your summer get together and a great way to utilize fresh strawberries.
