Recipe Notes

Serve extra salsa on the side as a topping or dip for chips.  Add toppings such as: avocado or guacamole, vegan sour cream, vegan shredded cheese, a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar (my mother's favorite), lemon or lime wedges, and any herbs and spices you like.

Cook time will vary depending on the cooking method you use.
