How to Make Salsa Verde

tomatillos

🥗Healthier: green tomatoes

💰Cheaper: canned tomatillos

Canned tomatillos are often less expensive and still provide a similar flavor.

jalapeños

🥗Healthier: serrano peppers

💰Cheaper: banana peppers

Banana peppers are milder and more affordable.

cilantro

🥗Healthier: parsley

💰Cheaper: dried cilantro

Dried cilantro is a budget-friendly alternative.

Peel the tomatillos to remove the sticky skin.

Chop one-third of a white onion and add it to the mixture.

Add more tomatillos if too much onion is added.

Start with one jalapeño and taste for heat, adjusting as necessary.

Add a lot of salt and pepper to the mixture.

Blend the ingredients until smooth.
