Strawberry salsa two ways

Strawberry Salsa

Strawberry-balsamic-sage salsa, July 2013

You’re familiar with fresh, sweet strawberries for dessert, but did you know they pair nicely with savory dishes? Here are two versions of strawberry salsa. Either would make a colorful relish at a summer barbecue. The strawberry-jalapeno salsa goes well with grilled chicken or fish, or use as a dip with plantain chips. Serve the strawberry-balsamic-sage salsa as a summer substitute for cranberry sauce alongside grilled sage-and-garlic rubbed turkey thighs.

      Thank you, Miachel!! I did find packaged plantain chips, Inka brand, but my husband can’t tolerate them, so I’m now on a quest to make my own. 🙂
