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!

Happy Father's Day!

Today is father's day and most people are getting together and celebrating with family. Dads, grandpas and uncles all celebrating together the joys of being a father. Maybe getting a chance to relax and enjoy just sitting around watching the kids play and being surrounded with family. That's what father's day has always looked like for us. We would always gather at my parents house. First, with my grandparents when I was growing up for dinner and a day of enjoying being together. Then as I grew older my sister and I would make sure to spend the day with our dad. Then we got married and had kids of our own and the tradition continued. We would bring all the kids and enjoy BBQing at my parents house enjoying time together. This year things are different.We can't just jump in the car and head over for a BBQ. We can't sit around on the couch or on the patio talking and laughing together. This year we are 12 hours away from where I've always been for father...

Week #2 on THM

Well it's officially the end of week 2 on Trim Healthy Mama! I have tried some more new recipes from the book and from pinterest and I'm having so much fun with it. I also order some xylitol online to save money. I didn't realize how much sweetener I would be using but when you can make sweets for any meal or snack through out the day you can use quite a bit. Favorite Meals this week E pancakes from the book! Yum! I added in frozen berries to them while cooking and they were great and the boys loved them too. They got to have the added whipped cream or syrup on theirs. Fat Stripping Frappa! OMGOSH! This is going to be my go to summer morning drink! I can see myself making one of these up first thing in the morning to get my day going and then enjoying a yummy breakfast 3 hours later. Soon as warm weather hits Hubby's schedule will be packed full daily so my mornings will start early, like 5am early! So having a breakfast at 8:30 will be perfect timing! Cheese ...
