We have an ongoing love of Mexican food in the Yolar home. Every vacation we go on we search out at least one Mexican restaurant. It doesn't matter what country we are in, we have found them everywhere. But, sometimes life finds us at home and we must provide the Mexican food for ourselves! This is a new recipe that we are using for blender salsa that is quite tasty. When salsa is made, it is eaten by the scoop full - there are no dainty dippers here! so this recipe makes a big bowl full of salsa. (If you have Pyrex clear mixing bowls, this is enough to nearly fill the middle sized bowl).
Blender Salsa
2 big cans whole tomatoes, drained (I save the juice for enchilada sauce!)
1 jar (8 oz) diced or whole jalapenos (not pickled) (We like spicy so could use more!)
1/2 yellow onion, cut into quarters
1 tsp. garlic powder
1 tsp. salt (depending on how much you prefer)
2 tsp. cumin
1 tsp. sugar
juice of 1 lime
Place all of the ingredients together into a food processor or blender and puree until smooth. Serve with tortilla chips. You can refrigerate first to let the flavors all jell together, but our bowl never makes it off the counter before the chips start to be dipped!
Enjoy!
