I make 2 different kinds.
Blender Salsa
- 2 Cans tomatoes (16oz)
- 3 green onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 lime juiced
- Cilantro to taste (I like a lot so I use a bunch not a lot, but a bunch)
- fresh jalepeno (canned/jarred can be used) cut in half and take out all seeds the heat is in
- the seeds (I like a few seeds, but I like the heat)
Put everything in the blender and whirl until smooth.
Pico De Gallo
- 4 large tomatoes (I use fresh for this) chopped into small pieces
- 1 yellow onion
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 lime juiced
- Cilantro to taste (I like a lot so I use a bunch not a lot, but a bunch)
- fresh jalepeno (canned/jarred can be used) cut in half and take out all seeds the heat is in the seeds (I like a few seeds, but I like the heat)
In a large bowl place the chopped tomatoes. In a food processor place remaining ingredients. Whirl until finely chopped mix in with tomatoes. Cover and refrigerate several hours or overnight for the flavors to blend. (07/11/2008)

You could use any salsa recipe and just not add the hot peppers. (07/11/2008)

Making Homemade Mild Salsa
- Red tomatoe salsa
- 5-6 fresh roma tomatoes
- sm red onion diced finely
- sm can of green diced chiles
- bunch of cilantro chopped
- dash of salt and pepper
- 1 garlic glove finely minced
Refrigerate for about 30 minutes.
Green Tomatillo Salsa
- 10 tomatillos (they are green and have a paper-like skin)
- sm can of green diced chiles
- 3 arbol chiles
- sm red onion diced finely
- bunch of cilanto chopped
- dash of salt and pepper
- 1 garlic glove finely minced
Peel the outer paper like skin off the tomatillos. Rinse them off. Toast the tomatillos and arbol pepper. You can do this on the stove or toaster oven. You need to watch carefully so you don't burn them. Place in a blender. Mix with the above ingredients and refrigerate for 30 minutes or so.
I usually serve with chips and crackers of choice.
* I like to add an avocado and/or shrimp with a dash of lemon juice. A few squeezes. Yummy! But my family prefers without them.(07/13/2008)

I don't have a recipe, but do everything to taste.
4 cans petite cut diced tomatoes, drain off as much juice as you can
- Half a mild onion, diced (if the onion seems strong, soak it in water for an hour then drain. Strong onions can overpower as well as make the salsa too spicy.)
- 1 or 2 cloves of garlic, minced (again, strong raw garlic adds spice so you may want to use less rather than more.)
- 1 large bunch of cilantro, chopped
- lime juice, 2 or three tablespoons.
Put it in the fridge to let the flavors blend for at least an hour. Depending on taste, you can add more of specific ingredients. (07/14/2008)
