Hello Darlings!
I am loving prepping for the Fourth of July, so I knew I had
to do a special patriotic Meatless Monday this week. And is there anything more
American than red, white, and blue salsa made with blueberries grown in the US?
I think not. This recipe is both super simple and very delicious, perfect for
whipping together the morning of your Fourth of July Barbeque! (Giveaway at the
end of this post! (now closed))
Ingredients:
- 1 Pint Blueberries
- 2 Red Peppers, Diced
- 1/2 Red Onion, Diced
- 2 Jalapeños, Diced (Wear gloves while cutting these- their
oils can burn!)
- 3 Tablespoons Cilantro, Finely Chopped
- 1 Teaspoon Salt
- Juice of One Lemon
Combine all ingredients, mix well, making sure to squish
some of the blueberries- it’s as simple as that!
The best way to serve a delicious homemade salsa is with a
brand of chips known for being made with high-quality ingredients and by a
health conscious company. I was lucky enough to receive a sample box of four
varieties of
Food Should Taste Good chips just as I was dreaming up the
blueberry salsa, perfect timing if I do say so myself!
I served the blueberry salsa with Food Should Taste Good’s
Cantina tortilla chips. Made with only three ingredients, they are simple but
incredibly delicious and have a super satisfying crunch! Certified vegan, you
know you’re not putting something harmful into your body.
Of course, I couldn’t just stop at serving one variety of
delicious chips; I had to try the additional three flavors I was sent. Thank
goodness I did! Here is a quick rundown on my thoughts on the Multigrain,
Olive, and Kettle Cooked Sweet Potato varieties!
This is the variety that that originally got me hooked on
Food Should Taste Good chips. I tried them out at my local store and loved that
they were certified vegan, gluten free, and all natural. I know that some
people assume that when you take gluten and animal products out of some foods
they can taste bland, but with Food Should Taste Good the opposite effect is
achieved. The chips are flavorful, slightly sweet, perfectly seasoned, and like
the other Food Should Taste Good varieties has that all-satisfying crunch.
I hadn’t tried Food Should Taste Good’s Olive variety until
this week. Boy was I missing out! These are my new favorite! Made with black,
green, and kalamata olives, garlic, and sea salt, they have a delicious, savory
Mediterranean taste that would go perfectly with hummus. (Or you can eat practically
the whole bag, by yourself, plain, like I did.) This variety is also all
natural, gluten free, certified vegan, low sodium, cholesterol free, and has no
trans fats; how is that for being super healthy on top of being delicious!?
I am a bit of a sweet potato connoisseur. If I am going to
eat something that is made with sweet potatoes it has to be top notch. Often, I
feel that many brands of sweet potato chips I’ve tried have been overly greasy
and not very fresh tasting. Leave it up to Food Should Taste Good chips to
break the mold! Being kettle cooked cuts the grease, and leaves a crunchy,
crisp chip. Made only with sweet potato, sunflower oil, and sea salt, the Gluten free, certified vegan chips taste fresh in their
simplicity, really letting the sweetness of all natural sweet potatoes steal
the show. These are, by far, the best variety of sweet potato chips I have ever
tried. Officially addicted.
Now that I’ve raved about how great the Food Should Taste
Good brand chips are how would you like to win a sample box of your own? The
folks at Food Should Taste Good are graciously providing a sample box of chips
