Recipe Ingredients:

• 1 1/4 lbs ripe Roma tomatoes
• 1 (14.5 oz) can petite diced tomatoes
• 2 green onions
• 1/3 cup chopped red onion
• 1 jalapeno pepper
• 1/3 cup fresh cilantro (about a handful)
• 1 large clove garlic, roughly chopped
• 2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
• 1/2 tsp chili powder
• 1/4 tsp ground cumin
• 1/2 tsp granulated sugar (optional)
• Salt and pepper to taste

How To Make Salsa Recipe?

1. Prepare the Ingredients: Combine all the ingredients in a food processor.
2. Pulse the Mixture: Pulse the processor in 1-second bursts until everything is finely chopped.
3. Taste and Adjust: Season with additional salt or pepper if needed.
4. Chill the Salsa: For best results, refrigerate the salsa for a few hours to let the flavors marinate.
5. Serve and Store: Serve with tortilla chips. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 1 week.

Recipe Tips:

• Use Fresh Tomatoes: For the best flavor, choose ripe Roma tomatoes. If they’re not in season, canned tomatoes work just as well.
• Control the Heat: Keep the jalapeño seeds for extra spice, or remove them for a milder salsa. Taste as you go to adjust the heat level.
• Don’t Skip the Chill Time: Let the salsa sit in the fridge for at least 1 hour. This allows the flavors to blend and makes it taste even better.
• Balance the Flavors: A pinch of sugar helps cut acidity, and a squeeze of lime juice brightens the flavor. Adjust these to your preference.
• Avoid Over-Blending: Pulse the food processor gently. You want a slightly chunky texture, not a smooth puree.

How To Store Leftovers?

• First, let the leftover salsa cool to room temperature. Transfer it to an airtight container and refrigerate. It will stay fresh for up to 1 week.
