One of our favorite dips is a simple combination of homemade salsa and light sour cream. The sour cream tones down the spice and allows you to get a hint of heat without letting the spice overpower the other flavors. It is a flavorful dip for chips and veggies and also makes a creamy spread for sandwiches and burgers.
My favorite time of year to make this salsa is in the summer and early fall when we are harvesting the tomatoes and peppers from our garden. It is great in many dishes, including fish tacos, omelettes and fajitas.
We incorporate this salsa verde into many of our dishes. Outside of traditional Mexican food, it is also excellent for marinating chopped ham and sausage for breakfast dishes. Make it as spicy (or not spicy) as you would like by adjusting the peppers in the mix.
