Equipment

  • 1 blender or food processor

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cans diced, fire roasted tomatoes (14.5 ounces each)
  • 1 medium onion rough chopped
  • 3 jalapeños rough chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 can mild green chilis (7 ounces)
  • 1 bunch cilantro medium size bunch
  • 3 tablespoons lime juice fresh squeezed
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons salt

Instructions
 

  • Rough chop the onion and jalapeños.
  • Add the canned tomatoes to the blender followed by the onions, jalapeños, garlic and then the rest of the ingredients.
  • Pulse the blender several times to move around the larger chunks and cut down their size. After pulsing several times, blend on medium until the desired consistency is reached. This usually takes about 30 to 60 seconds depending on the blender. Do not over-blend as we want a slightly chunky texture.

Notes

To change the spice level of this blender salsa:
  • Mild - use only one jalapeño 
  • Mild to medium - make recipe as written 
  • Solid medium - add one more jalapeño 
  • Medium to hot - add one more jalapeño and one habanero pepper
  • Solid hot - add one more jalapeño and two habanero peppers
