Bodacious Salsa Verde

Jamilahs_Kitchen's Note:

This is a Bodacious Green Salsa. Don’t be fooled by the color. Each ingredient represents one of the Bodacious Brickhouse Babes. A tangy, zesty flavor with the underlying tastes of hearty roasted green chilies, tomatillos, and onions. Tequila adds a splash of flavor and the fresh peaches gives it a fruity spin. Zaar World Tour 5.

OMG this is good. I made it with tomatillos from the garden and it is fantastic. I didn't have peaches so left that out. Can hardly wait for it to chill.

I loved this!!! I served this in Menu #28779 menu. I used poblano and anaheim chilies, along with the jalapeno.The peaches does get lost in this. Maybe the addition of peach liqueur would have brought it out more. This is quick and easy. and so delish! Gracia. Made for ZWT5

Bodacious indeed! It has some sweet, some spicy and a little kick. I keep telling myself that I don't need any more, yet my mouth keep watering at the thought that it might taste another incredible bite. Thanks for the post Babes! Made for ZWT5-RRR.
