The best topping for any taco, tostada or just dip in a chip and enjoy. This salsa is made with humble ingredients packed with incredible flavors and you can even add different spices or aromatics to make this recipe pop the way you want. I use a blend of poblano, anaheim and jalepeno peppers to get the spice and flavors I want in a salsa verde. Try this one out and let me know what you think.
