🏈 Week 6 of Game Day Bites: Italian-inspired Salsa 🌶️ This salsa is vibrant, it’s fresh, and it’s slightly spicy! 

5 Roma (or plum) tomatoes, halved 
1 sweet onion, quartered 
3 Jimmy Nardello. (Italian sweet peppers)
6 Garlic Cloves, in the skin
1/2 cup parsley, stems removed
1 TB Calabrian Chili Paste (optional - but only heat source)
Salt to taste
1/2 lemon juiced
5 TB red wine vinegar, plus more as needed
Olive Oil

Preheat your oven to 450º

Add the Roma tomatoes, onion, peppers, and garlic to a sheet tray.  Drizzle with olive oil and liberally season with salt.  Roast for 30-40 minutes until the veggies are charged.  Once done, set the sheet tray aside and let the veggies cool. 

Once the veggies cooled and you’re able to handle them, remove the skin from the garlic cloves.  Then add all the veggies to a blender along with the rest of the ingredients.  Pulse a few times until the veggies start to break down. 

Continue to pulse the salsa is broken down and the salsa reached your desire consistency. 

Transfer the salsa to a bowl, taste, and adjust seasoning as needed (salt, vinegar, Calabrian chili paste). 

Transfer the bowl to the fridge and let the salsa to cool completely.  Ideally, you want to chill the salsa overnight so all the flavors meld together.
