Traditional Garden Tomato Salsa
This salsa always gets big kudos when I serve it at a gathering. It tastes so fresh however not every ingredient has to come from the garden to make this salsa seem like you slaved over it for hours.
Ingredients
- 56 Oz. Canned Diced Tomatoes
- 3 Roma Tomatoes Seeded and Chopped
- 1 White Onion chopped fine
- 3-4 Green Onions cut, no white ends
- 1 Fresh Poblano Pepper chopped fine
- 1 Fresh Jalapeno Pepper chopped fine
- 1 Small Green Bell Pepper chopped fine
- 1.5 Tbsp Picked Jalapeno Peppers chopped fine
- 1 Tbsp Jalapeno Brine You can add more depending on taste
- 1 -2 Cloves Garlic
- 1 Tablespoon Fresh Lime Juice
- 1 Tablespoon Hot Sauce
- 1/2 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper add more for heat to taste
- 1/2 Teaspoon Salt add more to taste
- 1/4 Teaspoon Ground Cumin
- 1/4 Teaspoon Garlic Salt
- 1/4 Teaspoon Onion Powder
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients in a large bowl.
- Chill for at least 2 hours.
Notes
The hack is to use mostly canned tomatoes however chop up a few seeded Roma tomatoes and add them in. We also use canned pickled jalapeno peppers and a little bit of the pepper juice to add in acidity.
Taste after it is chilled. You can always add more cayenne pepper and salt if needed. If it is too hot you can add more fresh lime juice or more tomatoes
