Notes:

Well, this recipe might not be earth shattering to some, but this was my first time using tomatillos as an ingredient, and I think it came out great. It makes a small amount, as I used it to go on top of veggie burgers for dinner and didn't want any leftover.

Preparation:

Cut the tomatillos in half. Place in a cast iron skillet and Roast until they just begin to blister and give off some juice. While they're roasting, prepare the rest of the ingredients.

Remove the tomatillos and cool enough to chop. Chop them and put them in with the remaining ingredients and stir. Adjust seasonings. Chill if desired. Or serve at room temperature.
