The Secret to making the BEST Homemade Salsa:

Salsa made with just fresh ingredients can come off laking in flavor… Lacking depth. Salsa made with canned ingredients alone can taste store-bought, and preservativie.. (not a word but you get it)

Through many trails and errors I have come to the conclusion that you need both fresh and canned ingredients to make the best homemade salsa recipe.

Here is everything you need to make the most delicious salsa in your own kitchen:

  • Canned diced tomatoes – 1 - 16 oz can - no draining necessary

  • Yellow onion – Half of a large - peeled and quartered

  • Garlic cloves – 2- peeled, crushed

  • Jalapeños – 2-4 (adjust to your liking of spiciness) chopped

  • Cilantro -1/8 cup - chopped

  • Fresh lime juice - half of a lime

  • Ground cumin- 1/2 TBS

  • Pepper - 1 tsp

  • Salt - 2 tsp

How To Make Salsa

  1. Prepare the veggies and add to your food processor (no food processor, just chop and dice until you are happy with the chunkiness) along with lime juice and seasonings. 

  2. Add more cumin, pepper, and salt to taste, refrigerate until chilled.

  3. Devour it.

Add this salsa over eggs, on your fajitas, tacos, nachos or just dive in with tortilla chips!

Let me know how it turns out!
