Cookbook giveaway OR how my girlfriend saves the day

So my friend, Sandy (who has an excellent blog by the way) designs books for publishing. She heard that I was mourning my camera so she sent me a copy of a great cookbook that she’s just finished working on called Troy Mill Farms Cookbook - Our Favorite Strawberry Recipes. Isn’t she sweet? Strawberries are at their peak now so what better time to whet your whistle by sharing a recipe from it? Excuse my drooling while I show you this photo.

Strawberry Salsa

Sandy’s Strawberry Salsa
1 qt strawberries
¼ cup onion
1 cup tomatoes
1-3 jalapeños (depends on how hot you like it!)
2 tsp cumin
1 Tbsp fresh cilantro or 1 tsp dried
2 tsp white vinegar
¼ tsp salt
¼ tsp pepper

Put all ingredients in food processor. Chop to desired
consistency. Best if made at least 2 hrs before serving.

Sounds good, no? And so I’m giving it away to one fabulous reader. All you have to do is leave a comment and we’ll draw a number for one lucky winner on June 28. Good luck, my chickens!

  4. colleen Says:

    Ummmmm…. strawberries. I’ll take that cookbook! I just saw them making strawberry salsa at the farmers market Saturday. And samples. It was awesome.

  5. shar Says:

    Strawberry recipes! You’re speaking my language! Mmmmm!

  6. Pippin Says:

    We have the cutest little wild strawberries growing out back in my little yard, each one like a mini taste explosion. Shame they’re only the size of a pea each!

  7. Terri Says:

    First I have to say that one of the reasons I love your blog is because you live in Cleveland! Me too! Well, Strongsville actually, but close enough. Anyway, I look forward to reading your stuff because you are funny, the recipes are great and you didn’t give up even though you are still grieving the loss of your camera. Kudos to you!!

  8. grace Says:

    i’ve just stumbled onto the notion of fruity salsas, so i can imagine how delicious a strawberry version would be. strawberries rule.

  9. Sandy Says:

    Over 110 delicious strawberry recipes in the cookbook! Whoever wins will love it. Thanks, Friend.

    That strawberry salsa looks so good (wonderful job, Sandy)! What a great idea. I would love to win this Cookbook.

  11. Ashley Says:

    That strawberry salsa actually sounds really fantastic. I just got another box of strawberries in my CSA box this week so I might have to try it out…

  12. Audrey Says:

    That looks really interesting, I’m going to have to try it sometime.

  13. Maggie Says:

    I’ve seen the book & it’s one of the BEST!!!!
    The coolest thing is if you spill anything on the book while you’re using it, the pages wipe CLEAN!!!

  14. Kait Says:

    Mmm. Strawberries are my favourite fruit, except for bananas, which win only for their portability. Thanks for the giveaway… I hope you don’t mind but I’m blogging about it.

  15. Sue (coffeepot) Says:

    I never heard of strawberry salsa either. :)

  16. Kimberly Says:

    I gave my mom this recipe book as a gift - she loved it. It has so many yummy treats in it! Worth the purchase even if you do not win!

  17. Cherie Says:

    The salsa (along with all other 109 recipes!) tastes great! Who wouldn’t love strawberry recipes?
    Thanks!

  18. Francie Says:

    Strawberries are one of the few things that are really good for you AND really good! Yay! :)

  19. Lauren Says:

    We love strawberries! I’d love to be entered!

    I think the cookbook is great! Of course, I’m biased, as I helped to put it together… (so-no need to add me to the drawing). I wanted to add that there are several other Strawberry Salsa recipes in the cookbook - all with their own unique flavors. Delicious!

  22. Judy Says:

    I need a new cookbook!!! That strawberry salsa looks sooooo good. I’ll be trying that when I am on vacation!!!

  23. Acomplia Says:
