Adapted from a recipe from a former work colleague
We eat a lot of salsa, especially fresh salsa. But, alas, tomatoes are only in season for such a short while. This recipe utilizes canned diced tomatoes, which makes the recipe much more affordable. And it still tastes so fresh! I use this same recipe during the summer when tomatoes are in season, but just switch out the canned tomatoes for diced fresh. The recipe is extremely forgiving. I make it so often that I generally don't measure exactly and go more by taste. I find myself adding a bit more garlic salt than the recipe calls for, but I would recommend making the recipe as is the first time and then going from there. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
- 1 bunch of cilantro
- 2 large cans (28 oz each) of diced tomatoes
- 1-2 diced small onions, to your taste
- 1 large can (7 oz) of diced green chilies
- 4-8 slices of bottled jalapeno pepper slices, to your taste
- 2 tsp garlic salt
- 1-2 Tablespoon of bottled minced fresh garlic, to your taste
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp cayenne pepper
Directions:
- In a blender or food processor, blend ½ of one of the cans of tomatoes and pour into a large bowl.
- Add all other ingredients, chopping/dicing the cilantro, onions, jalapeno pepper slices to the appropriate size. Mix well.
