SAM’S FRESH SALSA-BLOGGER RECIPE CHALLENGE

FRESH, NOT FAKE

Sam’s Fresh Salsa has set the stage for culinary-focused bloggers by offering a chance to compete in their premier Blogger Recipe Challenge #freshnotfake.

I'm honored to be one of only 30 bloggers chosen to share culinary creativity by using Sam’s Fresh Salsa products.

THREE NEW FLAVORS

Bloggers received 3 of Sam’s NEW Fresh Salsa's for recipe creation and testing; Cantina Medium Salsa, Salsa Verde, and Watermelon Jicama Salsa.

The NEW Salsa Verde is made with a tart tomatillo base and just the right amount of heat. It's the perfect compliment to my char-grilled oysters topped with pecorino romano and cotija cheeses.

30 MINUTES or less

On the table in less than 30 minutes, this easy appetizer has very little prep work. Just shuck the oysters (I suggest you get an oyster shucker if you don't already own one) and top with a spoonful of Salsa Verde, melted butter, and a pinch of pecorino romano, and cotija cheeses; cook on the grill or under a broiler until the cheese is golden and serve.

The recipe is entered in the Appetizer Category.
