Salsa Verde with roasted poblano peppers, tomatillos, garlic and onion blended with a pinch of cumin, fresh lime juice and cilantro.
We love salsa, especially a Salsa Verde. We put it on eggs, burgers, tacos, quesadillas, pizzas, and whatever else needs a little extra flavor. Try and delicious homemade Taco Pizza! With just a few fresh ingredients, you can make a homemade Salsa Verde. The trick to a really tasty salsa is roasting your ingredients!
On a baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil, add your poblano peppers, onion, garlic cloves, and tomatillos. Broil for 15 minutes and place ingredients into a food processor. Add a lime freshly squeezed, salt and a bit of cumin for extra flavor. If you like it spicy, add a jalapeno or serrano pepper for extra kick.

We love a good salsa in our house! We will have to make this!
I love salsa verde but never tired making it myself – need to try this out!

Oooh…this looks great! Going to try this soon!
This sounds delicious! Do you use the traditional tomatillos for this recipe?
No we use green tomatoes although tomatillos would be perfect, that is typically what is used in a verde salsa. Both taste so similar to me. ????
This looks amazing! And perfect for tomorrow’s dinner — TACO TUESDAY 🙂
Love this dip! So yummy and healthy.
Yum! Homemade salsa is my favorite. I would eat this from breakfast to dinner. Saving to try this week!
It tastes great on lots of different foods ????
I want to eat all those chips right now! Looks so delicious! I like that you guys added a bit of sugar. I’m sure it adds dimension to balance out the bit of spicy! Yum!
Yeah. We had a super spicy jalapeño and we love spicy but for a salsa verde I like to taste all the flavors of the ingredients instead of a lot of heat.
