Homemade Salsa with Essential Oils


I've been experimenting with some yummy recipes and incorporating my love for doTerra Essential Oils. Here is my latest favorite recipe!

  • 1 can (28-ounce) whole tomatoes
  • 2 cans (10-ounce) diced tomatoes with chilies (I use mild)
  • 1/8 of an onion, chopped
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • ¼ t sugar
  • ¼ t salt
  • ¼ t cumin
  • ½ bunch of fresh cilantro (I LOVE cilantro, so I load it up – but you can use less)
  • 2 drops lime and/or lemon doTerra Essential Oils
  • Instructions
    Dump everything into your blender and pulse until you get the consistency you want. 
    Refrigerate for at least an hour, then serve and ENJOY. Kept refrigerated, the salsa should last for about a week (though you’ll eat it before then – trust me!).
    There are some great benefits to using essential oils in your food. You can read all about Lemon and Lime on the links provided! I love using lemon with vinegar in a spray bottle to clean with. I love using lime in my water as a easy and natural way to help detox my body on a daily basis. *Remember that using only Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade (CPTG) oils in food. Other oils can have additives that can be unsafe when taken internally.
    If you're interested in learning more about doTerra Essential Oils and how they can benefit your daily life let me know! I'm willing to help you! Enjoy your salsa!

The League of Incredible Vegetables: Movie Review

Picture borrowed from  Christian Film Database Another movie review! I was so thrilled when I was walking through Best Buy before Christmas and saw this  DVD sitting on the shelf. If you are a boy mom like myself you know that they love super heroes. I struggle to find age appropriated super hero movies for Monkey to watch. He loves Spiderman, Batman, Iron Man, ect. and he has not seen any of the movies/shows that go along with them. Wait...he did watch The Avengers with Daddy one day while I was out. I haven't seen that one so I can't say what I think of it for a 3 year old. Anyway, I love Veggie Tale movies! I think that they do a good job of teaching lessons to kids in a way that they understand and I love the lessons they teach! This one is great because it is about fear and how if you trust God fear can't freeze you. If you have kids, especially boys this movie is great! It helps them get the superheros they want to watch without the bad guys th...

Y3W: I hate drama!

I really consider myself and my life pretty drama free. I try my best to keep people that seek after drama at a distance because I really just don't feel like dealing with it. I have certain family that automatically causes it but you know they are family and there isn't much you can do about it but set up boundaries to not allow it to affect your daily life. Which we do! I love all my extended family but sometimes, seriously, just grow up, stop acting like the world revolves around you and get over it. You children have their own families now! Anyway! After dealing with more family drama (disclaimer: the person I'm talking about would not be reading this so if your family and you are it's not you that I'm complaining about :) then I get a nasty note from a neighbor who is just plain being rude. And I love how they waited until I left before putting the note of the door. I haven't had a car for almost 3 full months and this week my hubby finally got his motorcy...
