New things to come this summer/ Mango Bean Salsa

So guys,

I have been crazy busy this summer.  I thought to myself, oh I will get some time off.  I'll cook, bake and blog; but no!  I have been just as busy.  Camps and work and weddings everywhere!  I am also deeply considering selling my strawberry preserves over the internet.  Let me know if that would interest any of you followers out there!  Anyway, that's no excuse you say.  To that I say you're right!  So, a preview of things to come:

I am going to be:

baking breads
making pies
experimenting with salads/salsas
showing you the best baked beans you ever would taste
much much more!

Most of that is not happening today because I don't have it all prepared.  I did, however, need to get on here and make sure you knew I was still alive and to share one quick fresh recipe.  Another thing to note is that I have been eating a lot of sandwiches lately.  Oh my I dig a good sandwich.  

Anyway, I made a salsa with my dear friend Elizabeth last night.  We were just messing around and here is what we came up with:

Mango and bean Salsa
6-8 ripe tomatoes roughly chopped
2 medium onions chopped
two mangos diced 
3 cans of beans (your choice but we used black)
2 T (or more) minced garlic
2 small limes, juiced
1 medium bunch of fresh cilantro finely chopped
salt and pepper to taste

You are just going to literally mix this all together in a big bowl.  No special order, no nothing!  Nice, right?


This makes a TON of salsa and it's really darn tasty and easy.

Eat this with corn chips mmmmmmmmmmm.  It's a nice summer side dish.  Let me know how yours turns out.

Let us talk basic kneeds!
