Recipe: Carrot Salsa

I needed something quick and fresh with my limited supply of vegetables on a Friday morning (I usually stock up on vegetables on Sundays). This quick salsa was inspired by a recent week or two of watching Food Network shows on Hulu.com! 

   4 tomatoes, cut into quarters
   1 small sweet onion, cut into half
   1/2 a bunch of cilantro
   1 huge clove garlic
   1 small carrot, peeled and cut into large chunks
   Salt, cayenne pepper, chili powder, and garlic powder to taste

Throw all ingredients, except for seasonings, into a food processor and blend till smooth. Add seasonings to taste. A fun way to serve this is to put a medium sized lettuce leaf on a small plate, lay two carrot sticks lengthwise down the middle, add three grape tomatoes, and then put a generous tablespoonful of salsa on top. Wrap and enjoy!
