Millican Pecan says
Salsa made at home is so much better than store bought. I love the simplicity of these recipes, with varied outcomes. I love mine mild, with just a hint of spice, so this is great. The watermelon salsa is so good, too!
Heidi says
I agree… nothing beats a good homemade salsa! 🙂
Rebecca Dillon says
I love that I can save money and make my own healthier version! Thanks for the recipe.
Heidi says
You’re very welcome, Rebecca… you won’t believe how fast and easy it is to make, too!
Twyla Hobbs says
What is Mexican style tomatoes?
Heidi says
Hi Twyla ~ they are basically just stewed tomatoes with some added seasonings and flavors like garlic, cumin, and jalapenos. If you can’t find them at your store, you could just use original stewed tomatoes and add in a bit of garlic powder and ground cumin, and some diced jalapenos if you’d like a little heat. Hope that helps! 🙂
Christie says
This salsa sounds and looks amazing! I love how it’s easily made in a food processor and takes little time. Thank you for sharing this!
Heidi says
Thanks so much, Christie… using a blender or food processor really makes it such a breeze to make! 🙂
Cathy McComas says
I made this at work with seniors and it’s so good! I was curious…if I were to put some in little jars for gifts (to be refrigerated), what the shelf time would be?
Katya says
Hi! I’m wondering if anyone knows the nutritional facts for this recipe. I LOVE this salsa and would like to make a jar for a friend, but she has very restricted caloric intake right now. If it’s healthy enough, she would love a delicious salsa for her otherwise dull diet!! 🙂 Thanks!
Debbie Hughes says
This is great to freeze…just make sure there are no big chunks. I don’t care for cooked, canned salsa and after this thaws it tastes like it was just made!
Karen says
You forgot to add the Lime Juice. Add 2 Tbsp of lime juice. Also use Jalepenos either fresh or from the can sliced very small depending upon how how you like it. Experiment with a Tbsp at a time. Use the canned Petite tomatoes instead.
Sandy says
I’m Canadian…and have no idea what Ro-Tel is for making the
salsa. Can someone please give me some idea as to what this is.
Thanks
Sandy
Heidi says
Hi Sandy,
Ro-Tel is a brand of Diced Tomatoes with Green Chilies added. If you can’t find Ro-Tel, you can just use a 10 oz. can of Diced Tomatoes with Green Chilies. Hope that helps! 😉

Chrissy says
Hi! I make a similar recipe, except I like mine a little chunky. So I put everything in a pot and simmer it on the stove for a while. It gives it a really good flavor and softens up the onions. Then I just let it cool, put it in jars, and put in the fridge.
P.s. I love your site Heidi!
Heidi says
Ooh ~ that sounds yummy, Chrissy! 😉

Christie says
By the way I double the Salsa recipe and I do freeze it. It works just fine!!
Christie says
Thank you sooo much for posting this recipe. I have made it several times and tweek it a little more each time. It is so good! I love your site, and the recipe section is by far my favorite, thanks for all you do!
Heidi says
Gwen ~ I have never tried freezing this salsa… if you do, let me know how it turns out!

Katie says
I’m wondering if this recipe can be canned. How would I go about doing that? Would the ingredients need to be boiled before going into the jars for sterilization? Or would the hot water bath do that? Please help! I love this recipe and would like to make it in bulk and can, but I’m a beginner-canner and am not sure. Thanks!
Gwen says
Love your site! Today I have made the Freezer Jam and the Salsa!
I am wondering…can you freezer the Salsa as you would the Jam?
Beth Karhu says
Thanks Kristee. 🙂

sharon says
I make my own salsa with a can chili ready diced tomatoes and a can of Ro-Tel diced tomatoes with lime juice & cilantro and Ro-Tel diced tomatoes with habaneros ( hot!!) OR Ro-Tel diced tomatoes with green chilies. I add chopped garlic ( I used 2 cloves). The Ro-Tel are the 10 oz size and the chili ready is a 14.5 oz can.

Margie says
What is Ro-Tel? I have never heard of it.
Angela says
This sounds fabulous & easy, gonna try it! So few inexpensive ingredients, may have to keep some Ro-Tel a staple. : ) My only suggestion since I too love fresh salsa… try adding some lime. Gives salsa a yummy zing & keeps in fresher longer.
