Creamy Tomatillo Salsa
Description
We made this tomatillo salsa for the first party we held at our casita in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. It was a welcome addition to our table; spicy and light alternative to accompany our traditional guacamole. Tomatillo salsa is a variation of a green salsa. It is great as a dip, but can also be used over grilled pork, chicken or fish.

2 serrano chiles
1 white onion, sliced
