Salsa!

Salsa...

You apparently can’t reside in the Desert Southwest and not know how to make fresh salsa.  I decided that it was time I learned – especially since I purchased a Cuisinart Mini-Prep Plus.

It turned out delicious, and here’ s the recipe in case you want to “try your hand” at salsa making.

Desert Diva’s Homemade Salsa

  • 2 lbs. fresh Tomatoes (I like a mix of Field and Roma.)
  • 1 large Onion
  • 5 cloves of Garlic
  • 1 small bunch of Cilantro (Adjust to individual taste.)
  • 3 small Jalapeño Peppers (Remove seeds and inside stems.)
  • 2 Limes (Juice extracted.)
  • 1 teaspoon ground Cumin
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Mix ingredients together in a blender or food processor.  Chilling overnight helps flavors to blend and intensify.  Enjoy!

    Great presentation on the photo and LOOKS quite tasty! Wish I could dip a chip about now! :-) I succumb to being lazy and buy my salsa most of the time but I will surely have to give this a try in the near future. Thanks for posting the ingredients/recipe

    Yum! I also love green salsa made with tomatillos. It’s super easy and I find myself using chips as spoons to lap it up!
