Easy Homemade Salsa and End of Summer Celebrating
Thanks so much to Barefoot Refresh® for sponsoring my Easy Homemade Salsa and this post.
As summer comes to an end (insert sad face with a tear emoji), this is the perfect time to plan one more summer cookout or one last pool party of the season. Easy Homemade Salsa and Barefoot Refresh® are the perfect combination to combat those back-to-school blues.
Whether your plans include hosting a farewell summer get-together or just quietly enjoying the last of what this season has to offer, Barefoot Refresh® is the perfect light-bodied, refreshing spritzer for a myriad of summertime occasions.
My choice for relaxing and enjoying my vacation time this summer was very simple. Some of my favorite summer memories were spent just hanging out with my family. An evening of cooling drinks, yummy food and great conversation is absolutely priceless.
I have so much fun hosting small family and friend gatherings! Last weekend, we had a few family members over for drinks and apps before heading out to see a show. I whipped up this super easy salsa and served it alongside guacamole and tortilla chips. Barefoot Refresh® Spritzers were the drinks of choice. They come in five tasty blends Crisp Red Spritzer, Crisp White Spritzer, Sweet White Spritzer, Summer Red Spritzer and Perfectly Pink Spritzer.

I hope to make this delicious sounding recipe this weekend with our fresh tomatoes from our CSA. I have some bell and hot peppers I may add. Do you suggest taking the seeds out of the tomatoes prior to chopping or putting in the blender?
I never do. I also wanted to share this other salsa recipe that is our family’s true favorite- https://www.kimscravings.com/2015/06/best-damn-salsa-ever/ Enjoy!
