WFMW: Easy Homemade Salsa

May 14, 2013 by Kristen

wfmw-300x198

We are big salsa people. We dump it on eggs, burgers, chips, chicken and tortillas. And other food.

I’ve tried dozens of store bought brands and have finally concluded, mine is the best!

Here’s how I make my Southern Salsa:

Ingredients (I don’t measure, so these are approximate):

  • 1 can of Rotel tomatoes (we usually use mild)
  • 1 can of diced tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon of garlic
  • 1 chopped (seeded) jalapeno (I also used canned ones if I don’t have fresh)
  • 1 tablespoon of cilantro and then I keep adding (love this stuff) -fresh is best
  • 1/4 cup onion

Throw it in a blender or food processor. Add salt to taste. It makes enough for leftovers, unless there are chips involved.

Serve with everything.

Homemade salsa works for me!

    I love salsa, too. So much so that I wind up planting WAY too many tomatoes and pepper plants each year just so there’s plenty to can… and then I start running out of steam. By the end of the summer, I’m throwing fresh salsa on everything just to use it up.

    I wanted to invite you to join my How-To Tuesday link party, if you haven’t already. It’s open all week, and the entries are randomized, so everyone’s entry can make it to the top. It would be great to have you!

    However after interviewing thousands of cheating men over the
    past 15 – 16 years, I’ve found that a large number of the men who cheated on their wives or girlfriends
    could have remained faithful if they’d done the following things:.
    But, are you willing to take a risk on making your marriage work even though your
    husband cheated on you. You have a suspicion that your spouse is cheating but you keep
    telling yourself it’s your imaginations.
