Notes
Tips:
Use Cherry Tomatoes- Cherry tomatoes have extra sweetness and even in the off season they have great flavor.
Extra Spicy- If you like the extra heat, dice the whole jalapeno including the seeds and membranes.
Fresh Corn- Use fresh corn when in season. Char over an open flame or grill for 10 minutes flipping every few minutes. This makes it extra special.
More than a dip- Serve as a side salad or a light lunch with diced roasted chicken or shrimp.
