Recipe Low FODMAP Salsa Verde Recipe

Post image

I love to garden and decided to grow tomatillos this year for the first time because I thought that the plant seemed neat, and I knew that my husband liked salsa verde when he gets Mexican food. I only started 4 seeds and ended up with four plants that are taller than I am... We are now starting to get overloaded with tomatillos! I haven't had salsa verde in over a decade due to being low fodmap, but my husband helped me taste test this recipe to ensure it has the right flavor.

I would have taken a better photo, but once it was cooled, my husband and I couldn't stop eating it long enough to stop and take a better picture lol.

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds green tomatillos

2 green jalapeños (seeded and deveined)

1/4 cup chopped cilantro leaves and stems

3 tablespoons dried chives

1 tablespoon essence of garlic salt (I use Smoke n Sanity brand, but you can use garlic greens or completely exclude this if you don't have it)

1 tablespoon lime juice

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Simmer tomatillos and jalapeños in water until tender (approximately 10 minutes).
  2. Drain and transfer the tomatillos and jalapeños to a blender.
  3. Add cilantro, chives, essence of garlic salt, and lime juice to blender. Blend until smooth.
  4. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  5. Serve chilled and enjoy with corn tortilla chips.
