~ my 4th of july salsa ~

Recipe by

I had an avocado I needed to use, plus some plum tomatoes, left over corn on the cob from dinner and I wanted to come up with a salsa for the 4th. I had bought a bottle of Habanero oil a few months ago, and wanted to try it. So, this is the recipe I created. You can use olive oil if you have no Habanero, it would be just as good. This ended up so darn good. My husband loves it. It didn't last long. Enjoy!
