Favorite Salsa

Love this salsa recipe! I use a ton of ingredients from my garden and CSA box. Note: If Trader Joe's has its Hot & Sweet Jalapenos in stock, highly recommend using them in this recipe. The sweet/hot flavor is next level!

Favorite Homemade Salsa

4 large ripe tomatoes, quartered 

1 onion, peeled and quartered

4 garlic cloves, peeled and lightly crushed 

3 jalapenos, stemmed and seeded (or 1/3 cup Trader Joe's Hot & Sweet Jalapenos, even better!)

1/3 cup fresh cilantro, lower stems cut off (can add more if you have it)

3 Tbsp lime juice (fresh is better)

3 Tbsp ground cumin

2-3 tsp sugar

1 1/2 tsp salt

15 oz can crushed tomatoes

4.5 oz can diced green chiles

Directions:

Pulse all ingredients except canned crushed tomatoes and canned green chiles until chunky.  Note: Err on making it too chunky vs too fine.  Add in can of crushed tomatoes and can of green chiles.  Pulse a few times to combine.  Store in refrigerator up to 2 weeks (so good, it won't last that long).
