I don’t know about you, but sometimes I get the munchies a few hours after dinner and I need a snack. I could eat an apple or some carrots with hummus (all things I love), or I could eat some chips and salsa.
Chips and salsa makes such a great snack! I mean, I know tortilla chips probably aren’t the healthiest, but salsa is relatively healthy, and I never feel guilty about indulging that craving.
Aside from salsa being the perfect companion to chips, it’s also a perfect ingredient to cook with. You can add it to chili, soups, and any Mexican dish you like!
This Homemade Skinny Salsa is probably one of the best salsas I’ve ever eaten. It tastes so fresh and bright, and is super healthy – like only 34 calories per half cup! Yeah, I know. It’s practically calorie-free. This skinny salsa is also one of the easiest things I’ve ever made. If you’ve got a blender or a decent sized food processor, you can make this. I think I had my salsa made in 5 minutes. We’ve all got an extra 5 minutes to make something this delicious.
Don’t believe me? Go ahead and make it! You will never buy store-bought salsa again.
