Week of Aug 9 - salsa fresca

 I finally pulled up my socks and made salsa fresca because I had a jalapeno leftover from the weekend I fed a dozen people tacos (chicken, pork, beef, refried beans). Probably a tad nearsighted to make two cups of salsa to use up one small jalapeno, but now I know I can make a reasonable salsa and not buy the plastic tubs any more.

We also have: a partial tub of sour cream, jarred red salsa, jarred salsa verde, pickled red onions, oranges, zucchini, napa cabbage, sweet potato, bell peppers

loaded sweet potato home fries with salsa, cheddar, and a fried egg

braised maple-lime chicken thighs with salsa verde

braised coconut curry chicken thighs (with cilantro)

corn fritters with salsa

red lentil coconut curry (a good use for leftover fresh salsa? the ingredient list looks reasonable - https://rainbowplantlife.com/vegan-red-lentil-curry/)
