I’m excited to share my Restaurant Style Salsa recipe using simple ingredients. I usually add the ingredients to the blender or food processor, but if you prefer chunky salsa you can skip that step and chop your ingredients instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This easy salsa recipe is perfect for happy hour tortilla chips and salsa or as a topping for fajitas, tacos, or taco salad. Fresh homemade salsa makes a great addition to almost any menu or meal plan because it packs a lot of flavor without adding a lot of unnecessary calories or fat.<\/p>\n\n\n

Ingredients Needed for this Restaurant-Style Salsa:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Diced Tomatoes <\/strong>I buy the no sugar added canned tomatoes. You’ll still notice a measurement for sugar in the nutritional information, but that is because tomatoes have some natural sugar in them. You’ll just want to verify that the ingredients do not contain sugar.<\/li>
Fresh garlic<\/strong><\/li>
Fresh limes <\/strong>You’ll be squeezing them to get lime juice<\/li>
Onion <\/strong>I prefer red onions for the color and anti-inflammatory properties. Yellow or white onion is good to use, as well!<\/li>
Fresh cilantro<\/strong> I’d definitely skip the dried cilantro here. Fresh cilantro will add to the fresh flavors you’re looking for.<\/li>
Jalape\u00f1o pepper or serrano peppers <\/strong>This will give you a fairly spicy salsa. If you’d rather a mild salsa, skip the peppers.<\/li>
Salt<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n

Directions for Making this Restaurant-Style Blender Salsa:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Follow these simple steps to make this flavorful salsa. It should take about 15 minutes of your time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wash your ingredients.<\/li>
Cut the onion into smaller pieces and add all of the ingredients to your blender or food processor.<\/li>
Blend until smooth (or whatever your desired consistency is) and store in the fridge in an airtight container until serving. I love storing this salsa recipe in mason jars.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
