This salsa dates back to my great-grandmother's time, I am sure even further back. This sauce has been passed down for generations. It is timeless and delicious. I have tweaked it a little bit. But basically, it is the same and nothing has been omitted. It's always been on my table next to the salt and pepper. Enjoy!

We could not believe how easy this red salsa was to prepare. With a wonderful blend of tomatoes, garlic, jalapenos, onions, and cilantro, it tastes just like salsa you can find at an authentic Mexican restaurant. A Club favorite, this salsa really adds something special to your Mexican fiestas... or to your every day!

How To Make mexican red table salsa, salsa roja de mesa

1
Put everything into a large microwavable bowl. Nuke for six minutes.

2
Pour everything into a blender and, with short pulses, pulse into small chunks. Do not let the blender liquefy everything. This salsa should be chunky.
3
Pour into a salsa bowl. Serve with nachos, tortilla chips, or with your grilled meats or chicken. Or as a side dish to season your meal. Enjoy! I spread this salsa on my bolillos see my post when making molletes and bolillos.
