Most salsas are red, but this one is funner because it’s green!
Ingredients:
Directions:
Husk tomatillos and wash in hot water. Puree in food prcessor. Add remaining ingredients and puree. Serve with tortilla chips.

Last year for Christmas, my roommate and I made our first turkey. We had not idea what to use as a marinade, so we just threw this together and turned out, it tasted great! We’re making it this year, too. For some reason using this combination of ingredients made our turkey really juicy and not dry like most turkeys turn out.

Here’s some cool uses for vodka. And silly me, I’ve been mixing it with cranberry juice and drinking it over ice for years!
I’m making this post to give some free advertising to one of my favorite products: the Mr. Clean Magic Eraser!
It’s pretty much the best cleaning tool I’ve ever used. At my house, the tiles in the kitchen and the bathroom have tiny ridges that dirt get stuck in and mopping will never help. All you do is take the eraser, get it wet, and scrub away, and it does what it advertises: erases! Just buy it, ok? You’ll thank me.
A lot of people love baked potatoes but hate the cook time for them. A lot of people also don’t know that you can make them in the microwave for considerably less time and they come out tasting just the same. Grocery stores now sell potatoes that come pre-wrapped in clingwrap that you can put in the microwave, but they cost more. Since we’re all cheap, I’ll show you how to do it at home with a regular unwrapped potato.
This is the recipe my mom’s been using for years, and I can hardly even think of buying Prego. (Yuck.) It uses a packet of spaghetti seasoning, but differs from the recipes on the backs.
It sounds as simple as it is, but it’s the most amazing compliment to burgers and hot dogs when you cook out. Every time I make this, whether it be with family or friends, it always gets requested again the next time. The only downside is that it takes at least an hour to bake, but it’s so easy to throw together that total kitchen time is only about 15 minutes.
