7 Alternative Ways to Eat Salsa
Everyone loves chips and salsa, but there are many other ways to utilize this delicious and nutritious treat. Here are 7 ways to include salsa in your day to day cooking.
- CHILI – Substitute a jar of your favorite salsa for plain tomatoes in your next batch and you’ll never eat chili the same again. Meat tends to take a bit of the heat out of the salsa, so if you feel brave use something a bit hotter than you normally eat for some great spice. http://www.storandtfarms.com/blog/rhubarb-chili/
- CHICKEN – Crock pot chicken and salsa is as delicious as it is simple. Just pour some salsa over the chicken and cook. Serve with jambalaya, or brown rice. Great way to use up odds and ends too.
- QUESO DIP– This goes without saying. Salsa and cheese. What could be wrong with that?
- MEATLOAF – Meatloaf will never be the same! Substitute salsa for egg in your meatloaf for a tasty alternative.
- GROUND TURKEY – Turkey burgers will be moist and amazing with a little salsa mixed in before cooking.
- VENISON/BEEF STICKS – For those hunters or anyone who likes to make their own sausage or jerky, salsa is a great way to add flavor and moisture content without adding fat.
- SOUP – Tortilla soup. A spicy veggie soup sometimes served with pasta using tomatoes for a base is made extra special with a little salsa added.
