Homemade Mexican Salsa



I got this recipe several years ago in San Diego from you sweet young Mexican-American named Carmen. It has been a family favorite of ours for many many years! And what's so wonderful about this is that it's very easy and very tasty! 

INGREDIENTS:

  • Can of Diced Tomatoes (24.5 oz)
  • Bunch of green onions (about 5-6 medium size)
  • Bunch of Cilantro 
  • Canned or fresh jalapenos
  • Fresh garlic or jarred minced garlic
The last three ingredients you can adjust to your own taste. 

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Put all ingredients together in a food processor or blender. I use my very inexpensive Ninja blender bought at Walmart.
  2. Blend all ingredients together for 10-15 seconds or until you get an even consistency. Adjust the last three ingredients to your taste and re-blend.
  3. Once you get it to your liking, pour your salsa in your favorite bowl and start dipping! 

NOTES
I sometimes pre-make a jalopeno mixture by blending jalopenos and garlic together and store it in the fridge until I make salsa again.  It is also very handy for those who need to "kick it up a notch" on their nachos, burritos, etc.
