Salsa is one of my favorite summer foods. It combines my love for tomatoes, onions, and parsley in a very refreshing and tasty combination. Bonus points for being the perfect accompaniment to almost every summer bowl dish I can imagine.

For me, there can be no summer without tomatoes and ice-cream. But since I am on a dairy-free and low sugar diet for now let’s not talk much about the latter. Doctor’s orders. I really hope it goes away soon. Like, tomorrow soon!

But, back to this 3 ingredients homemade salsa.

Tomatoes may be my most loved vegetable (fruit?!) of all. Have you ever heard the joke that Greeks can’t eat if there is no feta on the table? Well, for me it’s feta and a side of tomatoes. I lovingly call it my “salad”.

Lately, though I discovered “bowl meals”. Yes, I do live under a rock.

In real life, this kind of meal was very VERY appealing to only me in the family. So, it made no sense to serve it to my family and make mealtimes a battle.

As we all know tastes change, so my patience was rewarded. And now I can have bowl meals on the regular.

And guess what else I make on the regular? 

SALSA!!!

My beloved 3 ingredients homemade salsa! For which we now fight over. If you want my advice, when your little one doesn’t want to eat certain foods don’t push it. Keep serving them and let them see you eat it. It might take time but they will most likely eat it at the end.

I serve this 3 ingredients homemade salsa on our weekly taco nights along with the rest of the components. Each one makes his/her own tacos so there will be no fighting. 

The rest will become toppings over rice, quinoa or any other grain I have on hand. It is the most delicious way to spice up your leftovers and reduce food and money waste.

I keep my salsa simple so even the little ones can enjoy it!
