This is a green salsa I learned while in Mexico. It is a green salsa with avocado and it is delicious! I always make it when we do carne asada. I am always begged for the recipe. Enjoy!

Ingredients

  • 10 freshs tomatillos , husks removed
  • 2 freshs jalapeno peppers , stems removed
  • 1 bunch fresh cilantro , stems trimmed
  • 3 avocados , peeled and pitted
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring a pot of water to a boil and stir in tomatillos and jalapenos. Boil until tomatillos turn bright green and soft, about 10 minutes.

  2. 2

    Place cilantro, avocados, cooked tomatillos, and cooked jalapenos into a blender, working in batches if necessary. Blend until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Add about 1 tablespoon of tomatillo cooking water, or as needed, if salsa is too thick.

  3. 3

    Stop the blender, and season the salsa with garlic powder and salt to taste. Blend again briefly to mix in the seasonings. Transfer to a bowl for serving.
