Sweet & Spicy Pear Salsa
The pear baking continues with everyone’s favorite condiment, salsa!
Salsa is a fast and easy way to use up vegetables you’ve got in the refrigerator, waiting, excitedly to be used and eaten (vegetables always get excited about being eaten). Or if you’re really lucky, you’ll be able to make this with all the veggies you grew in your garden this summer! I was able to use my fresh pears and I had garden tomatoes from my in-laws (all my tomatoes get eaten the second they’re off the vine). There is NOTHING better than a fresh garden tomato… Except maybe fresh garden tomato salsa!
