My salsa is about as plain as it gets

And it's also not a salsa...

This is about the same that I do. I like to blend it a good bit.

On the Boarder jar is actually pretty good. Different type of salsa from the tostiots and Emerils kinds.

- 1 can petite cut tomatoes, drained well and chopped fine.
- 2 med yellow onions, chopped medium to fine
- 2-3 cloves garlic crushed
- 2 tbs oil
- 1 tbs white vinegar
- 1-2 tps salt to taste
- 2 tps crushed red pepper
- 1 tps whole oregano
- 1/4 tps cumin
- 2 jalapeno peppers finely chopped

Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Mix well. Chill 2-3 hours. Store in refrigerator. Serve with bite size Doritos or your choice of chips.


I usually double the recipe, dish into small ziploc plastic bowls and give some to friends.

This is a simple, no frills, everyday salsa that you'd find at any grandmother's/mother's table every meal.


Two cans whole tomatoes
3-4 large jalapeno peppers
2 good size garlic cloves
Salt


Roast the peppers, dump every thing into a food processor and pulse to your desired consistency. Add salt to your taste.

I like to make this Salsa Verde. Good as a dip, or good as a topping for pork,chicken,fish.

1 1/2 pounds fresh tomatillos or 3 (11-ounce) cans tomatillos
5 fresh serrano chiles
3 garlic cloves, unpeeled
1/2 cup fresh cilantro
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
2 teaspoons coarse salt
