Not your ordinary jar salsa


I won't brag about much when it comes to cooking but I do have a few tricks up my sleeve and I'll give myself credit that I'm like fine wine...I get better with time. But my salsa is crazy good. I bring it to parties and make it for just about every get-together and I have to bring a big bag of chips because it's a hit.

It's such a hit that my 23-month-old even loves it. When he sees it in the fridge, he screams, "SALSA!" and eats it up. So consider yourself privileged that you know such an amazing recipe. I got this recipe a few years ago from a friend and it reminds me a lot of Central Market's 4th anniversary salsa.

Homemade Fresh Salsa serves 10-15 people

2-3 jalapenos
2-3 cloves of garlic
3-4 green onions
1 bunch fresh cilantro
10-12 medium ripe roma tomatoes
lime juice
salt to taste
dash of Tony Cachere's

Directions:

1. I cut up the jalapenos and take out almost all the seeds. I put them in my food chopper with the garlic, green onions, cilantro. I just remember to put all the green/garlic stuff together. Put it in a large bowl.

2. Put all the tomatoes in the food chopper.

3. Mix all the green and red together. Add the salt, Tony's and lime juice to taste.

  4. Hi,
    I'm a school teacher & reading a primary school in Florida. Last few minutes reading your blog post and understand that I have to need a blender to save my time to cook and making juice for my kids. So I think I buy a chopper for blend fruits juice. I was searching post about best food chopper but I didn't find in your blog. My request to you please mention me a post about the best and cheap blender. I hope you will do it for me.
    Waiting for your reply.
    Thanks
    Jessica
