"elmer's" Summertime Sweet Onion Salsa

"elmer's" Summertime Sweet Onion Salsa Recipe

Picked up this recipe at a local "Elmer's" restaurant. It sounds so good and easy to prepare. They were giving out the recipe free so I guess it's OK to post here. I haven't tried it yet, but the card said: It takes only minutes to produce the best-tasting summer salsa ready for dipping, topping, and summertime fun. Cooking time includes standing time.

  • 1 jalapeno, seeds and ribs removed, minced
  • 2 green onions, including green tops, cut into thin slices

  • 1 teaspoon sugar

  • Stir gently to combine.
