This is the salsa recipe I have been using for years. Simple and versatile because you can choose how hot you want to make it. It was given to me by a dear friend, but I think it is originally a Jean Pare recipe. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do! We will never buy salsa again...you may not either.

Yield 8 cups, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (28 ounce) can whole canned tomatoes or 1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
3 (10 ounce) cans diced tomatoes with green chilies (buy the mild if you don't like heat)
1/2 red onion, finely chopped (can use 1 tsp onion powder instead of fresh)
1/4 cup cilantro, roughly chopped
2 jalapeno peppers, roughly chopped (remove seeds if you don't like heat!)
1 teaspoon garlic powder (2 cloves finely chopped if you prefer fresh garlic over powder)
1 teaspoon cumin powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon sugar

Steps:

  • In blender or food processor, pulse 28oz can of tomatoes and the juice, peppers, and cilantro until desired texture.
  • Add the diced tomatoes with chilies and onions to processor if you like your salsa smooth. Want it chunky? proceed to step 4.
  • Once you have gained the desired texture of your salsa, pour into a large bowl.
  • Add remaining ingredients to bowl then stir well.
