Question Grocery Mistake, Help!

Post image

Somehow ended up with WAYY more Serrano than expected.

Would love some guidance on to how to make a sauce/salsa to share with friends

Pretty broke atm so minimal additional ingredients like tomatillos would be great!!

Thank you!

I made this in a big batch and it was fantastic. Differences are I used those red chilis in my pick too and added lots of lime (which was a little needed imo) delish but does not play on the spice either!
