Green Tomato Salsa Recipe Tips
Do you have to peel green tomatoes for salsa?
For this recipe, we recommend peeling the tomatoes so you don't run into any tough tomato pieces when blending—or eating! However, other
homemade salsa recipes may have different instructions.

Yes, it is perfectly safe to eat green tomatoes. Try out these other
green tomato recipes, too!
How long does this green tomato salsa last?
We recommend enjoying this salsa fresh since there's avocado in it. However, you can make it a few hours ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator until you're ready to serve it. (Speaking of serving, here are the
best tortilla chips on the market, according to our Test Kitchen.)
