Restaurant Style Salsa

Ok, so my friends have known about this website for a while and have used it, but I just recently decided to go check it out. I don't know what I was waiting for! I have made like 4 things already and they have all been fabulous. Anyway, Darin is CRAZY about this salsa and you can make it ALL year long without having to have the fresh ingredients I usually use for my pico salsa. YUMMMMY, you HAVE to make it tonight! Oh, by the way, the site it the pioneer woman cooks.

Recipe: Restaurant Style Salsa

| | |

Ingredients

  • 1 can (28 Ounce) Whole Tomatoes With Juice
  • 2 cans (10 Ounce) Rotel (diced Tomatoes And Green Chilies)
  • ¼ cups Chopped Onion
  • 1 clove Garlic, Minced
  • 1 whole Jalapeno, Quartered And Sliced Thin
  • ¼ teaspoons Sugar
  • ¼ teaspoons Salt
  • ¼ teaspoons Ground Cumin
  • ½ cups Cilantro (more To Taste!)
  • ½ whole Lime Juice

Preparation Instructions

Combine whole tomatoes, Rotel, onion, jalapeno, garlic, sugar, salt, cumin, lime juice, and cilantro in a blender or food processor. Pulse until you get the salsa to the consistency you’d like—I do about 10 to 15 pulses. Test seasonings with a tortilla chip and adjust as needed.

Refrigerate salsa for at least an hour. Serve with tortilla chips or cheese nachos.

ya that pioneer lady is crazy. she has about a million page long love story about how she and her husband met and got married. read it once on night shifts a couple years ago. she's crazy, but the things i've tried of her's are usually good (although not usually low on fat)

i love love love the pioneer woman! (polly, i know that does not surprise you!) her recipes are not low fat, but all tend to be very yummy! her "bacon wrapped jalapeno thingies" are aaa-mazing! and her sense of humor is so dry and it always cracks me up! i know you probably didn't know i read this blog, but i have for a while, and i love it! thanks for letting me read and comment! :) reg

p.s.-- that million page long love story is being made into a book! it's coming out in february. in case you want to re-read it, or in case miranda wants to read it without scrolling through all the blog pages!
