Dad’s Famous Homemade Salsa

Dice the tomatoes, green onions, onion, and jalapenos. You may choose to leave some of the jalapeno seeds to increase the heat of the salsa. If you like your salsa mild, remove all the seeds. I usually wear gloves when dicing the jalapenos, as they irritate my skin.

Place the diced ingredients into a medium bowl. Add in the tomato sauce and water. Stir to combine. Measure in the salt and the garlic powder and stir. Taste test with tortilla chips and adjust the the seasonings according to taste.

Store in the refrigerator in an airtight container. The salsa may thicken after sitting in the refrigerator. Add a little water if you desire a thinner consistency. This recipe makes about 1.6L or 7 cups of salsa.

It’s great on tacos, carne asada, even grilled chicken. You may choose to add an avocado for more texture and taste.

Enjoy!
