Spicy Summer Salsa

Chris and I have been craving delicious salsa for weeks, but since we haven't been able to make it to our favorite Mexican restaurant we've yet to have our salsa fix. So tonight we decided to change that. A spin off my dad's delicious salsa, we took his recipe, added a few of our favorite things and voila, a spicy summer salsa that's good any time of the year. (I think we are a little too excited for Cinco De Mayo!!)

Spicy Summer Salsa

*A food processor is needed for this recipe

1 Large Can diced tomatoes
1 Green Pepper
1/2 of a Sweet Onion
1/2 Can Serrano Peppers
1/2 tsp. Chopped Garlic
1 tsp. Cilantro Leaves *you can also use fresh cilantro, I just prefer the dried spice because the flavor is not as overwhelming
2 Tbsp. Course Sea Salt

Combine green pepper, onion, and Serrano peppers in your food processor and chop until liquid.


Add in the rest of your ingredients and process until the texture appears like the picture. Salt to taste and enjoy with your favorite tortilla chips! Pairs great with your favorite cervesa!


*If you do not like hot food you can eliminate the Serrano peppers and you have a refreshing salsa with no heat.



Tomorrow I'm going to attempt some East Carolina inspired jello shots! Look out Pirates, these are for you!
