This salsa is full of ingredients we love, and the taste did not disappoint. We had some about an hour after making, and finished the rest the next day. On the second day the color of the asparagus had faded considerably, so for the best presentation I would recommend eating it the first day. I'll also use regular tortilla chips next time because the blue organic ones were kind of hard and not full of taste, and the color didn't look good with the salsa. We loved the actual salsa, though, and will make again.

I'm a stay at home mom of 2 (one of each), wife, doggy mom, and volunteer. I don't do much of the stay at home part of my job, but love every minute of it! I like to travel and try new things. I collect cookbooks...and try to use them all. I'm passionate about my kids and my volunteer work. I helped start up an organization called Arlington's Kids' Kloset. We give clothes 2x a year to kids in the school district who are on the free and reduced lunch program. Lots of hours, but when I watch a child leave with a huge bag of clothes and new shoes it fills me with pride. My kids (6 and 10) also volunteer with me.
Some of my past times...I love to go to hockey game (GO SILVERTIPS!)with my husband, and sometimes kids too. Not much extra time during the school year - soccer, basketball, baseball - but I read when ever I have a spare minute.
