In my household we are huge salsa fans! We eat it on just about everything! We love the salsa they serve in the Mexican restaurants. We set out to make up our own recipe. It is not exactly like the restaurants. It is better smooth and chunky together. My husband and I enjoy making this salsa together. It is an awesome fresh salsa!

    TIPS ~ If salsa is to spicy boil another tomato and blend and chop another tomato and add to the bowl. You could also just add some tomato sauce. Not spicy enough either boil another Jalapeno and blend or chop up a jalapeno and add it fresh. Too soupy add more chopped vegetables.
