Amanda's Salsa Recipe

Ingredients:
1 can Rotel, drained*

1 28 oz can of diced tomatoes, drained

1 bunch of cilantro, fresh

1/4 - 1/2 onion, rough chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

juice from 1 lime

kosher salt to taste

Directions:

In a food processor combine the Rotel, onion, garlic and cilantro until blended.  Add lime juice, salt, and diced tomatoes.  Pulse a few times until the tomatoes are incorporated**.   

Salsa can be stored in an air-tight container for up to 7 days.

This is a great base salsa and perfect for experimenting.  Tomatillos, a bit of cumin... you get the idea.

NOTE: 
*The Rotel is where the heat for the salsa comes from.  I usually use original, but anything would work (Although I don't particularly like the lime and cilantro one.  Makes the salsa taste a bit odd).

**I add the tomatoes at this point so that they are not pureed but add a bit of texture to the salsa.  Feel free to incorporate them earlier if you prefer a thinner, less chunky salsa.
