TONY'S RIDICULOUSLY EASY HOMEMADE SALSA

Steps:

• Add all ingredients to a blender or food processor and pulse until it gets to the desired consistency; you can make it chunky or smooth! I like a little bit of texture so I go with slightly chunky. Add salt to taste. Chill salsa for 1-2 hours or overnight to let flavors come together. Serve with chips, on nachos, on chili, or anything you like!

EASY CILANTRO LIME ROTEL SALSA

Steps:

• Dice/chop the onion based on your preferences. I prefer to chop mine in a food processor.
• Remove cilantro leaves from stems. Discard stems, and chop cilantro leaves or run through food processor slightly.
• If you prefer really chunky salsa, then simply mix all ingredients together.
• I prefer a more blended salsa, so I use a food processor to make my Rotel and petite diced tomatoes a bit smaller.
• I never measure the minced garlic, cumin, lime juice, salt, or pepper, so the amounts are all estimates. You can adjust to your own personal tastes.
• Enjoy! I've been known to just eat it straight from the bowl. :-).

CAUTION: EXTREMELY HOT! SALSA

Steps:

• Put peppers, onion, garlic, cilantro and cumin in a food processor, and process until finely minced, but not a paste.
• Or, if you're mincing the peppers by hand-be SURE to wear rubber gloves, as the oil from the peppers is very irritating to skin and eyes.
• Add seasonings, vinegar, olive oil and water and mix well.
• Store in a glass container with a tight fitting lid (I use the larger size of baby food jars).
• Stores well in the refrigerator for a couple of days.
• Serve on chips, eggs, grilled chicken, in burritos, on tacos, mixed into rice or beans, anything you can think of!
