Fresh Salsa

With Farmer's Markets, overflowing produce departments and summer gardens it's time to think beyond tomatoes with a variety of fresh salsas to add a little kick to your summer entertaining. 
Salsa came from the Spanish word meaning "sauce." Traditionally we think of salsa as a red sauce made from tomatoes, red onions, garlic and chilies but add some creativity to your cooking and try some new recipes.
