You Should Make This Salsa...

I have been reading the Pioneer Woman blog on and off for a while now.  I tried one of her recipes on Monday night for restaurant style salsa and loved it!  I'm a bit picky about what salsas I like, but this one really did have the consistency of a restaurant salsa.

It's a bit spicy, as the recipe calls for a whole jalapeno with seeds included, but I like that.  I really don't like cilantro, so I only used a little bit and it came out great.  For some reason, I forgot to put in one of the cans of diced tomatoes and green chilies but I couldn't tell anything was missing.

This recipe made a really large batch of salsa.  She recommends using a 12 cup food processor.  I've been wanting a food processor for a while, but wanted one that wouldn't take up too much room.  I bought a little 3 cup food processor the other day that I liked because it didn't come with too many parts, seemed easy to clean, and didn't take up tons of storage room.  It worked well for this salsa, although obviously I couldn't chop all the ingredients at once. I just filled the processor, chopped the ingredients, and poured into a big mixing bowl until everything had been chopped. Then I stirred it all together and it came out fine.

Hope you try this recipe and like it!
