Taste and See that the Lord is Good!

Posted by & filed under Oliver, Recipes.

For your viewing pleasure, a few photos I snapped of my handsome little guy at church yesterday. Isn’t he something? (There’s no chance I’m a little biased, is there?)

And, for your tasting pleasure (or, simply for your viewing pleasure again if you aren’t interested in making this), one of the favorite recipes I inherited when I married Ryan.

His Mama (my mother-in-law) makes THE BEST salsa and this is her recipe. I chopped some up for Ry this afternoon. I swear it disappears faster than I can make it!

Bev’s Delicioso Salsa

12 Roma tomatoes
1/2 C fresh cilantro
1 onion
5 drops tobasco
1 T vinegar
juice of 1/2 lemon
grated lemon rind
salt
pepper
1/2-1T garlic salt
1/2 jalapeno pepper
1/4 t cumin
Fine chop all ingredients and combine.

(I’ll confess that I used a Vidalia Chop Wizard – a gift from my MIL – and that
I am not THAT good at chopping!)

Happy Monday!!

    >He is too cute :-)

    Thank you for the salsa recipe!! I've been looking for a similar one for ages, except it had black beans and canned corn. Now if only I can find the cumin and cilantro in the spice cabinet :o)

    >I'm just glad that recipe didn't call for coriander seeds. Ahem.

    (I promise I am learning. I am growing cilantro out back, and I even know that it's the same thing as coriander!)

    Also, glad to see you achieved the blurry background. I may have to have you show me when we're in TN. Every instruction I've seen online (MckMama, Pioneer Woman, etc.) deals with Canons, and I have trouble locating the aperture and what not on the Fuji. I know our cameras are cousins, so perhaps you can help. Or maybe I can just sit around and let you take the pictures. Either is fine with me.

    Love him so much! His teefs look great!
