Last week, my friend from Taiwan asked if I liked salsa. Of course I said yes. She brought some over and it was UNBELIEVABLE! Weird, I know. My Taiwan friend made some of the best salsa I have ever had. So I asked for the recipe and made more the next day. The HUGE batch was gone in a week. The only people eating it were my husband and I. I think we each gained 10 pounds. But it was so worth it.
Ingredients
1 can (28 ounce) Whole Tomatoes with Juice
2 cans (10 ounce) Rotel (diced tomatoes and green chilies)
1/4 cup onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 whole Jalapeno, diced
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/2 cup Cilantro, roughly chopped
1/2 of a whole lime, juiced
Directions
1. Combine whole tomatoes, Rotel, onion, jalapeno, garlic, sugar, salt, cumin, lime juice, and cilantro in to a blender or food processor. Pulse until you get the salsa to the consistency you like (I do about 10-15 pulses). Test seasoning with tortilla chip and add more salt as needed.
Note: Recommended using a 12-cup food processor, or process the ingredients in batches and mix everything together in a large bowl

Pretty sure this is Ree Drummond's recipe. Ree (The Pioneer Woman) makes some darn good salsa! She's hilarious. You should check out some of her other amazing recipes. I could totally eat chips and salsa ALL OF THE TIME too. Well, maybe not breakfast. I make this recipes when my garden tomatoes are no longer. I think it's the best canned tomato recipe I've come across.
ReplyDeleteChelle,
DeleteThanks for letting me know this is Ree Drummond's recipe. I just gave her credit. I am glad you like this recipe as much as I did! I definitely agree with you; best canned tomato recipe I have ever come across as well!
