fast & simple fresh salsa
I started making this in 2016 when I needed salsa for a slow cooker recipe and I have made this ever since. Fast to put together but the flavors will blend the longer it is refrigerated.

How To Make fast & simple fresh salsa
-
Step 1Drain the juice from the can of tomatoes and set juice aside. Pour the tomatoes into a medium mixing bowl. This can had 4 tomatoes and a good sized glass of juice. -
Step 2Use a a knife and fork and chop the tomatoes up, takes all of 2 minutes, if that, the tomatoes contain some juice as well, that is the reason to drain first. Photo shows done chopping.
-
Step 3Add the rest of ingredients and add to the bowl.
-
Step 4Mix together. Add the tomato juice to your needed consistency. If needing a thicker salsa, use less juice. If needing this for slow cooker use, use more juice. Cover and place in the fridge for several hours to blend the flavors. Use as a dip or in recipes that call for salsa.
