This super easy salsa recipe is so quick and fresh that you'll find that the store-bought brand you had been buying will no longer cut it. It would take me twice as much time to get in my car to purchase store-bought salsa than it does to make this.

My favorite way to enjoy this salsa is with Oven-Baked Tortilla Chips. It makes for a fast, easy, and festive appetizer for Cinco de Mayo, game day, and date night. It also packs well to take a party or family gathering.

This Super Easy Salsa recipe has 8 ingredients:

  1. Roma tomatoes
  2. Fire-roasted tomatoes (can)
  3. Onion (white or red)
  4. Jalapeño pepper
  5. Fresh cilantro
  6. Garlic
  7. Cumin powder
  8. Lime

How to make this salsa

Put all ingredients into a large bowl. Use an immersion blender to blend everything together. That's it! If you don't have an immersion blender, a food processor works well too.

Serve immediately and enjoy!

This salsa stores well in the refrigerator for up to 4 days in an airtight container.
