Now how's this for a pretty dish?Actually, the rainbow plate of minced, diced deliciousness was eventually mixed in with the rest of the salsa. But, the line up sure made for a colorful photograph.
Just this morning my wife, a neighbor and couple of friends made our way to the Kansas City River Market (The BIG Farmer's Market). One of the oldest FM in the country and still one of the best.
So, an hours worth of leisurely shopping, another 20 minutes of chopping, dicing and mincing (many hands make light work) and we had a salsa to remember!
Bright, colorful, tropically sweet, savory and spicy...
Fresh and Healthy and a DELICIOUS BLEND OF FARMER's MARKET FLAVORS!
