Ingredients

  • 1 15-oz can fire roasted diced tomatoes, slightly drained
  • 1 4-oz can fire roasted green chilis (substitute fire roasted jalapenos for added heat)
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • ½ red onion roughly chopped
  • ½ teaspoon dried cilantro or a handful of fresh cilantro — which is superb
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon sugar
  • Juice of ½ lime

Instructions

  • Add all the ingredients into a food processor and pulse a few times until you achieve desired consistency. Be careful not to overprocess as you want to retain its chunkiness.

Notes

Canned Tomatoes

  • If using a small or petite diced tomato, stir it in last after onions, garlic, and herbs are chopped in a food processor or blender.
  • Fire-roasted tomatoes bring delicious flavor to the salsa but plain diced tomatoes work fine too. If you can find salsa-style canned tomatoes, it's extra yummy.
