Equipment
- food processor
Ingredients
- 15oz can fire roasted tomatoes
- 1 clove garlic peeled
- ¼ onion red, yellow or white
- 3 mini bell pepper or half of a red bell pepper (add or sub jalapeño pepper for spicy salsa)
- ¼ cup cilantro
- 1 juice of a lime
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 6 grinds fresh black pepper
- pinch sugar (optional)
Instructions
- Chop onion and bell pepper into large chunks. Pulse all ingredients in a food processor until desired consistency.
- Store in jars in the fridge for up to 1 week.
Notes
- Fire Roasted Tomatoes are best, but if you can't find them, substitute stewed or diced tomatoes. Fresh tomatoes will also work but give you a different type of salsa.
- Don't Over Blend - pulse salsa in a food processor just until the desired consistency so it doesn't become watery.
- Recipe makes about 3 cups of salsa.
