My Mom’s Easy & Delicious Salsa Recipe
Salsa is a year-round kitchen staple in our home. While I rarely shy away from any salsa variety, it’s simply impossible to beat fresh, homemade salsa (especially when it’s as delicious as this recipe). Growing up, this recipe was almost always prepared and stocked in the fridge. I remember picking the freshest ingredients from my mom’s garden and watching her experiment with measurements to create the perfectly balanced homemade salsa recipe! It is beyond easy to make, and even easier to enjoy! This fresh family favorite pairs well with tortilla chips, tacos, a morning breakfast scramble, and so much more. Grab your ingredients and enjoy!

Notes
- Remove stems, ribs, and seeds of jalapeño peppers to control the amount of spice. This tool is an efficient way to do so!
- When selecting bell peppers, I like using a variety of colors red, green and yellow.
- I love using my Vitamix blender, but you can also use a food processor!
