Ingredients

  • 10 oz tomatillos (approx. 5-6 tomatillos)
  • 1 large jalapeno pepper

  • ¼ tsp cumin

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Remove husk from tomatillos, rinse, pat dry, and coarsely chop.
  2. Remove the stem and seeds from your jalapeño, and chop. To control the heat of this dip, you can add as much or as little of the seeds as you want. This can be done at any time so feel free to taste the final product before spicing things up!
  3. Add all the ingredients to your food processor or blender and puree until well blended.
  4. Dig in! Leftover dip may be kept tightly wrapped the fridge for a few days.
