Ingredients
  

  • 1 can (28 oz) whole tomatoes with juice
  • 2 cans (10 oz) Rotel (diced tomatoes and green chilies)
  • 1/2 cup chopped white onion
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 jalapeño, quartered and sliced thin
  • 1/4 tsp sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup cilantro
  • 1/2 whole lime juice

Method
 

  1. Combine tomatoes, Rotel, onion, garlic, jalapeño, sugar, salt, cilantro, and lime juice in a blender. Pulse until salsa is to your preferred consistency (usually about 10 pulses).
  2. Pro tip: if you like chunkier salsa, save a handful of onion and cilantro and add to salsa after mixing in the blender.
  3. Chill salsa in the fridge for an hour before eating. Serve with tortilla chips.
