I have never been a fan of store bought salsa or sauce and after years of searching for a great one I finally decided to try my hand at making my own.
Through trial and error, this is what I have landed on and consistently make this for my family.
It is truly quick and easy to make for something with such great flavor.
For this recipe there are no real measurements, but I will try my best to explain how much I use.
Of course there is a lot of personal preferences that go into this recipe so you can tweak it to your pallete.
You may like your salsa super hot or mild and can adjust the jalapenos according to that.
When I make this for get togethers I will make a batch for the kids without the peppers.
