It’s time to spill my secret. {My secret salsa recipe that is!}
The secret is this: I use canned tomatoes with green chilies as the base. So simple. I always keep them on hand in my pantry so I can throw this together in no time.
I don’t know about you, but Chips & Salsa has always been one of my favorite foods. I am a sucker for fresh & flavorful Mexican food!
Sarah’s Simple Salsa
Ingredients
- 1 14 oz. can Fire Roasted Tomatoes with Green Chilies
- 1 14 oz. can diced tomatoes with green chilies
- 1 large handful fresh cilantro leaves
- 1/2 medium sweet onion

- 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
Instructions

Notes
The flavors combine best after refrigerating for a couple of hours, but I make it and serve immediately all the time because fresh salsa is just too good to resist!

I use this salsa on anything – scrambled eggs, salad, with chips, as an appetizer, or alongside any Mexican meal I prepare.
Once you try homemade salsa, you’ll never want to go back!

You don’t cook it at all? I have a recipe for salsa that requires stovetop time. I think to make the pepper softer.
No cooking! There are many different ways to make salsa and all different flavor combinations. This is how I make it – hope you enjoy!
Thanks! I’ll have to try it! Yum!
