I think I’ve made it known before that I’m really into Mexican food. I love the salsa Mexican restaurants serve so I decided to try making some at home to enjoy. This recipe makes 6 cups so I should be good to go for a while!
Ingredients:
- 28-ounce can whole tomatoes (peeled) with juice
- 2 10-ounce cans Rotel (diced tomatoes with green chilies)
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 1 clove garlic, chopped
- 1 jalepeno, quartered and sliced thin
- 1/2 cup cilantro
- Juice from 1/2 a fresh lime
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
Add all ingredients to a food processor. Pulse until you get desired consistency. Refrigerate for at least an hour and then serve. I love my salsa with blue corn tortilla chips :)
