Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 0.5 cup cilantro more to taste
  • 0.5 cup onion about 1/2 cup, sweet or red onion preferred
  • 1 clove garlic outer skin removed
  • 1 whole jalapeno halved, seeds removed for less spice
  • 28 ounce can whole tomatoes undrained
  • 0.5 teaspoon sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 0.5 lime lime juice
  • 1 can diced tomatoes with green chilies 10 ounce

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. Combine cilantro, onion, garlic, and jalapeno in a blender or food processor. Process until all of the veggies are chopped, about 30 seconds.
  2. Add the whole undrained tomatoes, sugar, salt, cumin, and lime juice. Pulse a few times until you get the salsa consistency that you like (10-15 pulses).
  3. Add the diced tomatoes and pulse one or two times to combine. Test the seasonings on a tortilla chip and adjust accordingly.
  4. The salsa is much better when it has time to sit. Let it rest for at least an hour before serving with warm tortilla chips or any other Mexican dish.

Notes

This blender salsa is incredibly easy to make and tastes so much better than store-bought. Perfect for parties or just a weeknight snack!
