Quick and Easy Salsa

[AggieHunter]

I didn't have much of a recipe to go off of so I threw some stuff together today and was really pleased with the outcome!

1 - 28oz can diced tomatoes
1/2 - Small yellow onion
4 - Jalepenos (more or less depending on how much heat you like)
1 1/2 Tsp minced garlic (the actual spoon, not the measuring spoon (not sure if they're the same or not)
1 small handfull Cilantro (maybe 1/4 cup before chopping)
Salt to taste

I finely diced everything and just mixed to gether in a bowl. Depending on the consistency you like you can chop, dice, use a food processor, blend, puree, etc.

I make almost the exact same thing but instead of the diced tomatoes and jalepenos, I just used Rotel tomatoes and chiles in whatever heat you want. I used the regular but they have the hot and mild.

Also as a difference, I mash up one avocado per can of Rotel. If I used the fresh onions and garlic, I let it set for three or four hours to let the flavors blend. If I am really in a hurry, I use garlic and onion powder so the flavors blend quicker.

Great stuff though with or without the avocados.

I kind of got the recipe from a restaurant. One of the guys I work with brought some to work one day and it was a big hit. I found out that his mother owned and ran a Mexican restaurant. She made a green salsa with tomatillos instead of tomatoes but other than that, it was just about the same and she added the avocados.

I didn't feel like cooking tomatillos and decided on the shortcut of Rotel.

that sounds just like mine, except I add a little cumin and vinegar...I mix mine in a blender

Try roasting the jalapenos and tomato on the bbq grill..throw it all in the blender..makes for some excellent salsa dip.

I think this needs to become the official TBH Salsa thread. Post your favorite Salsa recipe....

1 can original rotel

That's what I do - I cut a few fresh tomatoes and an onion in half and put them on the grill along with japs. After they are roasted I give them a spin in the processor and add to a basic recipe similar to the one in the first post.
