Red Velvet...yum!

I feel like I have spent all day in the kitchen. For Brandt's birthday I made him cinnamon nutmeg waffles with peaches and home made whip cream for breakfast and it was sooo good! Tonight I am making baked egg rolls and my version of Panda Express Orange Chicken. For his dessert I made red velvet cupcakes. And for lunch I made my homemade salsa. Here is the recipe.

Salsa

Ingredients:

• 5-6 roma tomatoes, diced
• 2 jalepenos, diced(take out the vein/seeds if you aren't a spicy person)(not pictured)
  
• 1 serrano pepper, diced(not pictured)
  
• 1 small can of diced green chiles(Hatch is our favorite brand if you can find it)
• 1/2 large red onion, diced
  
• zest and juice of 1 lime
• bunch of cilantro
• 3 garlic cloves
• 1/2 tsp cumin
• 1/4 tsp garlic powder
• 1/4 tsp cayenne
• salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
Put everything into your blender/food processor and blend away!

*It tastes better the next day. I always make it in advance.
