This salsa isn't quite what I was hoping it would be. I can taste every individual ingredient (including the olive oil) instead of all the flavors melding together into one. Overall, the tomato flavor is overpowered by everything else.

The best salsa recipe I've found!!!!!

This is a great recipe to use tomatoes from the garden. Make the recipe as directed or omit the cilantro and add Italian herbs for a great pasta sauce. This sauce freezes well too.

My first time making salsa, too. YUM! I omitted the jalapeno and added some crushed red pepper instead. I added a few drops of liquid smoke and used dehydrated chopped onions instead of fresh (due to my allergy to raw onions), and added 1/2 tsp. of sugar. I also like chunkier salsa so I chopped instead of using the blender. Gave half to friends, and between them and myself, it was all eaten before the end of the evening. That was last week. I made an un-roasted version last night and let it sit in the fridge so the flavors could blend...I just went and stirred it up, and I am seriously considering having chips and salsa for breakfast. I will never buy salsa at the store again. I made three times as much for half the price of one bottle of my favorite brand. And this recipe is way better. Thank you!

This is a great Salsa recipe. Roasting or grilling the veges is key to this recipe. I used a serano pepper because its what I had on hand. Next time I'll cut the cumin down a little and add another pepper to kick up the heat a bit.

I added some corn, and it made it even better.

Yum! I made 1/2 a recipe which was perfect to have with our mexican dinner plus a little leftover. I cut & seeded tomatos and jalapenos and peeled the garlic before roasting. My husband suggested that I peel the tomoatos next time. Great flavor!

So good. Cut andSeed the tomatoes (don't core thm) before you roast them. Add a bell pepper, cored and halved and roast it too. Put them on a wire rack on top of a rimmed cookie sheet so the heat will surround the vegetables instead of allowing them to boil in their own juices (although I still add the juices back into the salsa before pureeing). Adding a teaspoon each of garlic powder and onion powder makes this dish transcendent.

This was super messy. But really tasty.

added a little sugar and it needs a little more heat. Will add another jalapeno next time

Really good!

I used cherry tomatoes and still turned out great ;)

I was happy to finally see a salsa with fresh ingredients! I wasn't sure about the roasting part, but we followed this one to the letter. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great. I think we were after something more along the lines of a "garden salsa". We'll give it another shot, but skip the roasting part.

I did not think this recipe calls for enough tomatoes. I ended up adding a can of stewed tomatoes because it had such an onion/cilantro taste. After adding the extra tomatoes it tasted quite good. Second time I made it I used green onions and 2 large cans of stewed tomatoes, however I still roasted them in the oven. I also like more spicy salsa, so I do not take the seeds out of my peppers. Good base recipe, I just liked some personalization.

My family loved this one! Awesome flavor! Made 6 servings, which was about 2 cups, next time we'll make MUCH more!

I made this salsa for two different holiday parties - everyone loved it! The level of spiciness was just right. Even the hard core spicy lovers were satisfied. The cilantro was a bit overwhelming in the first batch I made so I halfed the amount the recipe called for in the second batch. I also added salt to taste. Thanks much for sharing!
