EASIEST SALSA AROUND

Ingredients

  • 1 (14.5 oz.) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 (10 oz.) can mild Rotel, undrained
  • 1/4 med. onion
  • 1 clove garlic, peeled or 1/2 tsp. squeeze garlic
  • 1/2 tsp. sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 tsp. cumin, to taste
  • big handful on cilantro
  • juice of 1/2 lime

Preparation

Step 1

*Rotel (diced tomatoes and green chiles) is pretty spicy on its own (even the mild one), so depending on how spicy you want it, you can add 1/2 - 1 jalapeno. I never add a jalapeno, but add a really tiny sprinkle of cayenne.


Add all the ingredients to a food processor or blender and process until it reaches desired consistency. Taste and adjust as needed. Store in mason jars in the refrigerator. Yield: enough to almost fill two 16 oz. mason jars. (I use a food processor and I don't chop anything before hand, but if you are using a blender, you might want to roughly chop the onion and garlic to help it blend better).
