Super Easy Salsa Verde & Burritos
I was originally going to make a nice, hearty stew today because we've had some chilly nights (and days), but then I checked the weather and saw that it was going to be 97 degrees F (36 C)!! In three short days the high temperature will be 60 F (15.5C) with a low of 46F (8 C). This is Michigan for you, I guess. Anyway, it was WAY too hot for me to cook or eat hot food today so I had to find a no cook dinner.
I decided to make some super easy burritos with salsa verde. I've never made anything with tomatillos before so I didn't even know if I'd like it, but I thought it tasted fresh and delicious. Alone, I thought it could use some more salt, but it was perfect with the chips.

This Salsa Verde recipe is from Food Network. It is very easy and requires only a few ingredients. There were two versions on the show, but I made the raw version. I just put these items in the blender, then mixed it with chopped onion and salt. Click here for the recipe.

To make the meal complete (though I really could have eaten just the salsa verde and tortilla chips), I put together some simple burritos.

organic tortillas
vegetarian refried beans (sub black beans if you don't like these)
shredded lettuce
avocado
salsa verde
cilantro
halved cherry tomatoes
hot sauce
Usually I add sauteed or grilled vegetables to these, but it was seriously just too hot for that. I know a lot of people can handle heat, but I am certainly not one of them.
Update on Buddy: He has now been off his medicine for a couple of days and seems to be doing fine, but as I write this he is crying for no apparent reason. I'm hoping there's just a squirrel outside that I can't see.
