This is the easiest thing to toss together when the going gets hot, hot, hot! This clean and simple recipe shows off the absolute greatness of eating food that has been harvested at its most ripe and often sold to me on the very same day it was plucked.
The ingredients that comprise this super simple salsa/salad will soon be up for grabs at a market near you (if its currently early July when you’re reading this), or maybe even already if you are chilling in the warmer States down below.
5 Ways To Enjoy This Salsa Recipe
- As a salsa of course- dipping into it with your favourite organic tortilla or crispy rice chip chips.
- Use as a salsa topping or extra filling in your wraps. I love it in this sweet potato black bean burrito.
- Enjoy it solo as a tasty side salad.
- Use it as a topping over top of your grilled tempeh, fish or organic, free run, farmer loved poultry or meat.
- Add a spoonful into your favourite summer gazpacho or chilled cucumber soup.

Kale chips look great. How can I make them without a dehydrator?

You can dehydrate them in the oven at its lowest temperature if you want to replicate the dehydrator, or bake them. Full instructions and recipes are in this post: https://www.meghantelpner.com/blog/8-kale-chip-recipes/
