I found this recipe on Cyndy's favorite recipes. Cyndy also offered to share one of her delicious desserts with us. I will be posting it on Tuesday.
The salsa makes a great summer snack. Thank you Lisa from
My Own Sweet Thyme.
Blueberries have been on sale and I picked up quite a few pints and since I had a bag of tortilla chips in the house I knew this would be something healthy to nibble on.
Ingredients:
1 cup fresh blueberries, coarsely chopped
1 shallot, finely chopped ( Added red onion- suggested by Cyndy)
1 serrano chile, seeded and minced ( added 2 diced jalapenos)
1 Tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped
1 Tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon fresh ginger, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt (didn't add)
Directions:
Combine ingredients in a small bowl. Put in refrigerator covered and let it sit for twenty to thirty minutes for the flavors to blend.
This sounds like a really different kind of salsa. I bet it is yummy. I can't wait to see what recipe Cyndy is going to post on Tuesday. It is such fun coming here. Linda always has something different for us. It could be a recipe, or something real interesting she has found online, and my favorite day is Monday. Max makes me smile.
ReplyDeleteMyra, the photo is beautiful and bet it taste great. Both Carol and Cyndy take gorgeous photos and their recipes are outstanding.
DeleteI remember Cyndy making this............she raved about it. I haven't tried it yet but hope to this summer since Robin found a local place to pick blueberries not far from her house. You're right Linda-what a great and healthy snack.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Myra-there's always something fun to see here. I always look forward to stopping in to see what surprise is in store. :)
Once we get down to Florida full time their are plenty of U- Pick places! Just think of all the blueberry recipes I can made then!
DeleteHey, you are not a bad picture taker either. Your pictures look good enough to eat.
DeleteHello fellow ShareFest SITStah, this recipe sounds interesting. I can't imagine blueberries with onions and jalapenos - I'm so curious I must give this recipe a try. Thanks for sharing it!

Hi Marie- I love making something new and as soon as I saw this recipe I knew I had to give it a whirl. Let it sit in the fridge for awhile. It makes the flavors really shine ;-)
DeleteMarie ,like you I wasn't to sure either . I too will try this. Thanks Linda you never cease to find something different for us.
ReplyDeleteAlways on the lookout for something healthy for you Dottie!
DeleteOh, I remember making this. The fresh ginger is what makes this so darned good. Learned my lesson the hard way and tried dry powdered ginger the first time YUUUK. I also added crushed pineapple to it once and that was good too. I'm so happy you tried this Linda and liked it. I never would of thought to use blueberries in a salsa but it worked!
ReplyDeleteMarie, You wouldn't think that they're good together, but the mix is spot on. I use Sweet Onions for this recipe and for my mango salsa as well.
Perfect lead in to your recipe on Tuesday Cyndy! I never use the ginger in a jar but agree that fresh was delicious in this.
DeleteNever added the pineapple will have to give that a try next time.
it's an oldie but goodie. I'm glad you liked it.
DeleteI'm pinning to my Summer Salads board, I think it fits right in there! Sounds good, can't wait to try it.
ReplyDeleteShirley~ it's something different and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
DeleteThis sounds really good. I'll have to give it a try!
ReplyDeleteHi Jennifer- hope you like it as much as I did.
DeleteHi Kathy- this is so good and extra bonus- it's healthy! Thanks for stopping by!
