Handmade Salsa...Literally

By

My mother always made her salsa with her hands and it had to have LOTS of garlic! I love this way of making salsa because you can decide by your own hands the perfect consistency & chunkiness of "homemade" salsa you prefer! Get set to get your hands dirty!

NOTE: This is a great recipe to get your kids involved with their lil' hands right in the middle of the action!

*TIP: Salsa gets better with time. The longer you let it sit & let the flavors marry, the better your salsa will be. So go ahead and make it a day ahead of time! You'll love the flavors you get the next day ;)
