Preparation

Step 1

In blender, place all ingredients except oil. Cover; blend until smooth.

In 2-quart saucepan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add tomato mixture; cook about 5 minutes or until hot. Serve warm or cold with tortilla chips, as desired. Cover and refrigerate any remaining salsa.

Tips

To blend the ingredients, you could use a food processor instead of a blender.

This salsa, which is a little thinner than a typical bottled salsa, also makes a great enchilada sauce.
