Pickle Salsa Verde

A tasty salsa verde with pickles!

Salsa verde (a simple salsa made with tomatillos and jalapenos) and pickles are two of my favourite foods and they get even better when combined! This pickle salsa verde is the combination of the two recipes where tomatillos, jalapenos, onion and garlic are roasted before being pureed, along with pickles and cilantro! You can enjoy this salsa with tortilla chips or use it in tacos, burritos, nachos, etc!
