It is hot in LA today. Really, really hot. The kind of hot that makes you wilt the moment you open the door to go outside. The kind that makes you seriously consider if you can, indeed, fit into that tiny narrow freezer; I think Matt might die laughing-- but not be one bit surprised-- if he came home one day to find me crammed into ours.
On days like today, all I want to do is lay on the couch in front of the fan and moan. But there is one thing that can never be beat when the temperature is flirting with 100 degrees: an ice cold Corona Light accompanied by chips with homemade corn salsa. Adrian introduced me to this fantastic snack last summer, and I now crave it the moment summer hits.
Adrian's Corn Salsa
1 can Sweet Corn
1 tomato, diced
Juice of 1 lime
2 T cilantro, chopped
Hot Sauce
In a bowl, mix corn, tomato, lime juice and cilantro. Add a few drops of hot sauce, to taste.
Take a break and catch your breath. Exert all remaining energy in opening Corona Light and squeezing lime into said beer. Pat face with clean dishtowel, take sip of Corona.
If you are impatient like me, eat salsa immediately with tortilla chips. Or cover and refrigerate for 1-2 hours, take a nap, and then enjoy.
