WOW umm how horrible was the Super Bowl last night?!

I’m a Redskins fan, but was really rooting for Peyton to take home the win…..I definitely did NOT expect it to be almost a complete shut out!  Luckily some of the commercials were pretty good (yeah how cute were the family of dogs?!) and Bruno Mars was entertaining, so there was that.

But enough of Super Bowl let-downs, here’s my favorite salsa!  I’m posting this first because you’ll need this recipe if you want to make the crock pot salsa chicken I’m always talking about.  This is a VERY easy and basic salsa recipe, but I love it because of all the HEAT and great flavor!  If you like your salsa spicy, I would suggest adding two jalapenos instead of one……I definitely did.  Just throw everything in your food processor and voila!

    Is there a way to print your recipes without all the comments, etc.?

    I love your blog!!! I love all of the clean recipes! I have been so frustrated at the grocery store lately with all of the wilted produce and just found out about this amazing tower garden where you can grow your own healthy vegetables at home….. Man, I wish I would have known about it sooner! Now it’s time to get back to healthy eating. Can’t wait for your next post!

    Great spicy salsa recipe – just what I was looking for. I hadn’t thought about using cilantro but will give it a try – great website btw.

    Kelly, I love your blog. I’m on it almost every day. I tell all my friends about it. I’m old enough to be your mother, but when I’m on your blog I feel so much younger. I have tried several of your recipes, and taken pictures. I’m thinking about doing a blog because I’m trying to lose weight and this may be a way to hold myself accountable. Don’t leave. It’s the best. Thank you

    Right!? It was kinda boring to watch, the only thing that brightened it up was the Bruno Mars concert. 🙂

    I am a total salsa addict, especially the fresh and light kind! This one sounds awesome with the green chiles! Pinned it to try soon, along with your crock pot salsa chicken!

  6. Julie says:

    This looks absolutely amazing!! Definitely going to try it soon.
