Tasty Restaurant Style Salsa





Since I have obviously been in a Tex-Mex frame of mind lately, I am going to post a great recipe I made recently for salsa!  It was really easy and yummy!  I only made half a batch of the salsa, but am posting the full recipe below.


I found the recipe on Pinterest (my new favorite obsession!).  I believe the original is from www.browneyedbaker.com and was adapted from a recipe by The Pioneer Woman.


The next time I make it, I plan to use fresh tomatoes (instead of canned) to see if it tastes even tastier!


The recipe is below, with my changes notated in parentheses.  Grab a bag of tortilla chips and enjoy!




















Restaurant Style Salsa


***This makes a large quantity so use an 11-cup food processor or larger.  You can also work in batches OR half the recipe if you have a smaller food processor.***


Yield:  About 6 cups


Prep Time:  15 minutes


1  28 oz. can whole peeled tomatoes with juice
2  10-oz. cans Rotel diced tomatoes with green chiles (I used Rotel Mexican Lime & Cilantro)
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 jalapeno, quartered and sliced thin (remove the seeds and membrane from the jalapeno for a milder salsa)
1/2 cup fresh cilantro
juice from 1/2 a fresh lime
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. granulated sugar
1/4 tsp. ground cumin


Add all ingredients to a food processor.  Pulse until you get the desired consistency, about 10 pulses.  Refrigerate for at least one hour and then serve with your favorite tortilla chips.
