made it once, very fresh and tangy. i don't have tomato and green chilies, so i used fresh tomato and some chili powder. not sure if that can be an substitute, but the result was good!

Ok so I tried this recipe & I didn't care for this recipe too much. I didn't like the green chiles and I have never heard of putting olive oil in salsa. This recipe was just ok. I really love the Speedy Salsa recipe on here .. it's 5 stars and is the most delicious and addicting salsa on this site. I think I will stick to that recipe from now on. Kudos though to you as it wasn't terrible at all.. just different. =)

This was perfect. I used a 14.5 ounce can of no salt added diced tomatoes because it is what I had on hand. It tasted great and was easy to throw together... cheap too. I don't think I'll buy salsa again in a jar if I can help it!

Very good recipe.It was exactly what i was looking for.I just wish I would have paid attention to the ingredients and took out the seeds from the jalapeno because it was pretty hot.So happy it was what I was looking for though.

Made as directed just did not measure out red onion or jalapeno peppers. Hubby ate half of it before it ever made it to the fridge. :)

we thought this was wonderful. not your regular store bought but who really wants all of those extra things they put in that are bad for you!?! the only thing we did different is put it in the food processor with a couple short/quick spins. we did this because i'm not a big vegie lover, especially in chunks. so if you don't like chunky salsa just give it a quick whirl a couple times and it's perfect!! taste even better when you pull it out of the fridge the next day and let all the flavors meld together!! thanks!!

This has thus far been my favorite salsa I've tried from this site. I was interested in the fact that it begins with a can of Rotel instead of some other canned tomatoes, because we prefer to use Rotel whenever almost any recipe calls for canned tomatoes, and the same is true here. I did up the spices for our tastes (lots more onion, cilantro, and garlic, and no added salt) but the base recipe here is definitely our favorite thus far. Thanks for the recipe!

I used fire-roasted tomatoes and half a can of LaVictoria green chilies. I used more garlic, added some cilantro, lime juice, cumin and oregano. This was hugely budget friendly, I got almost a whole Ball quart jar full! I did run it through my blender using the ice-crushing feature to give it a more uniform consistancy plus it cut my work in half. Having two boys in my face constantly, that's a blessing. This whole recipe didn't cost me more than a dollar and a small 8 oz. container of good salsa is almost five dollars! NOTE: You're best off making this as early as you can. The longer it sits, the better it tastes.
