Re-Twisted Lake Food: Homemade Salsa & Coconut-Panko Shrimp

July 15, 2010 by bsinthekitchen

For the Canada Day Weekend, my grandparents were nice enough to let me take a few friends to their cabin. So friends, if you’re reading this, be sure to comment below and say thanks – my grandma subscribes to the blog and will see your comments!! But like any Deutscher tradition, food is a must when entertaining guests! Keep their bellies happy and they will be happy!

During the weekend we ate like kings – from homemade four bean hummus with an assortment of veggies, homemade salsa with chicken to guacamole, sweet potato fries, over roasted hashbrowns, bbq’d eggs, skor bit fruit dip to coconut-panko shrimp!

Don’t judge the photos – they were taken at midnight at the lake…You can only judge if you ate the salsa, then you wouldn’t judge because it tasted amazing!

Here’s the recipe for our home-made salsa, which was tart, sweet and delicious!! We’ve already re-made it a few times:

  • 1/4 cup lime juice (preferably fresh)
  • 3-4 tbsp parsley
  • 1/4 cup Olive Oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 2-3 tomatoes (chopped)
  • 1/2 red onion (finely chopped)
  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • 1 avocado (chopped)
  • lime zest to taste

Chop all your veggies and combine everything. Serve in a deep dish or bowl. The salsa is great over chicken or whole wheat tortillas!
