Helpful Hints:
|
This salsa uses fresh vegetables that are available year-round. But garden-fresh vegetables add flavor and beautiful color, and kids and grown-ups alike can't resist how good it tastes. If you have a hand-held chopper, it is an easy task for kids to help with this recipe.
Garlic is often called for in recipes, and is easy to chop. Garlic is grown as bulbs or heads, which are made up of many sections called cloves. When a recipe calls for a clove of garlic, be sure that just one section is used ' not the whole bulb. Another great kitchen time-saver is pre-chopped garlic. You'll find it in the produce section of the grocery store, and ½ teaspoon = 1 clove.

Safety Tip:
|
If corn on the cob is used in this recipe, adult supervision is a good idea. Help kids that are old enough to safely use a knife to see how deep to cut as the corn is removed from the cob.
