An easy, 1 Minute Homemade Salsa recipe, using pantry ingredients you may already have on hand.
So many times I thought I had salsa in the pantry. Or I couldn’t remember how long an opened jar sat in the refrigerator. It was a game day, or an impromptu gathering, or simply a craving. And everyone wanted chips and salsa.
I no longer worry about those jars of salsa. It’s too easy and too delicious to make my own Homemade Salsa. And I can add heat or take it away. I can customize to my heart’s content.
Truly.
With ingredients, I always have on hand.
Here’s my easy, maybe a 1-minute recipe, using canned tomatoes and chili peppers, and a food processor. It’s mild, but with an easy switch from chili peppers to jalapenos, you can adjust the heat. Add a drop of hot sauce or sriracha to taste.
