Roasted Cherry Tomato Salsa and Chips, serves 8 "I had the pleasure of working with HIPPEAS Organic Chickpea Snacks on the launch of their tortilla chip line. I created several recipes that would work great for the Super Bowl, but my favorite recipe is for these nachos and salsa. It tastes great, plus you get both protein and fiber," says Matthew Kenney, celebrity chef and restaurateur.

Ingredients:

· 1 pint red cherry tomatoes
· 1 pint yellow cherry tomatoes
· 1 serrano pepper, seeded and diced
· 1⁄4 cup onion diced
· 1⁄2 cup chopped cilantro
· 2 tbsp neutral oil (canola, vegetable or grapeseed)
· The juice of 1 lime
· 1 tsp salt
· Bag of tortilla chips

1. Heat an oven to 450 degrees.
2. Place the tomatoes, Serrano pepper and onion in a mixing bowl.
3. Toss with oil and place on a roasting tray.
4. Cook until the skins of the tomatoes have blackened.
5. Remove the tray from the oven and allow to cool.
6. Place the ingredients in a bowl and mix with the salt, cilantro and lime juice.
7. To serve place chips on a tray and heat for 4-5 minutes in a 350-degree oven. Top them with the salsa and anything else you crave (think cheese, avocado, guacamole, etc.). You can also add scallions and cilantro for extra zest.
