    Tomatillo Salsa Verde is my kid's favorite salsa because it's not too spicy for them. I love to use the salsa on chicken enchiladas, tacos or even just as a dip.

    It is a great dip to take to parties for an appetizer, in fact I am making this weekend for our Super Bowl Party per my kid's request. Of course whenever I serve a green salsa that is always a winner with my kids.

    This recipe is simple and takes less than 30 minutes to make. You can also make this salsa and freeze it for up to 6 months. We like to serve Tomatillo Salsa Verde with tortilla chips and red pepper slices. Be sure to try this delicious salsa with Oven Baked Chicken Fajitas.
