Sexy Sally's Summer Salsa

Smokin' hot Sally

The Take2 girls are all about giving credit where credit is due - so take note! 


This is the first in a series of recipes we want to share from friends, from local eateries and from distant shores.  Despite the diminutive physique of tiny JC, she consumes enough food for someone three times her size.  She eats at least twice as much as curvy JC other.  Seriously, we know good food.  


Our hot friend Sally shared this salsa with us and we would be hard pressed to think of anything on which it does not taste good . . .  tortilla chips, chicken, fish, eggs...

Before I was a bag . . .My cotton interior typewriter font fabric was purchased for use as a bulletin board backing, but I was destined for something greater!
