Making My Sister's Salsa

My sister has serious salsa skills.
But when I ask for the recipe she is always like "I don't know I just threw stuff in it"
Dang it Angela.
Anyway, I went on a search online for salsa recipes that contained some of my sister's fabulous ingredients.
One of which is Chickpeas.
I FOUND ONE! YAY!
Mark, Sydney and I went to the farmers market this AM and got:
 4-5 Tomatoes
1/2 Onion
Cilantro Plant (used 3 tbsp minced)

Then off to Meijer for:
1 can black beans
2 cans chickpeas 
(recipe called for 1 can of chickpeas and one can of Kidney Beans but sissy doesn't put Kidney Beans in hers)
1 Big Can Corn
Jalapenos 
3 limes (just use the juice)

Ingredients from Home:
1 tablespoon Ground Cumin
2 teaspoonsful salt
1/4 -1/2 teaspoonful pepper

Drain and Rinse the beans and drain the corn.

Chop tomato,onion and jalapenos...of course.

Mix all ingredients together and fridge it up for 1 hour.





I love cilantro. A LOT.
As a matter of fact I love it so much that when one of my regular blog reads mentioned that she hated cilantro I pondered whether I could continue reading her blog or not.
I decided not to be a hater.  :)
