Ingredients

• 1 (14–15 oz) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes, drained

• 2 fresh Roma tomatoes, chopped

• ¼–½ white onion, roughly chopped

• 1 jalapeño, seeded (leave seeds for more heat)

• 1 clove garlic

• Juice of 1 lime

• ½ cup fresh cilantro (to taste)

• ½ tsp salt (adjust to taste)

• ¼ tsp cumin

• Optional: pinch of sugar (balances acidity)

2. Pulse until your desired texture (chunky or smooth).

3. Taste and adjust salt, lime, or heat.

4. Chill 30 minutes for best flavor.

Pro Tips (Why This Salsa Works)

• Fire-roasted tomatoes add smoky depth

• Lime juice brightens everything

• Draining canned tomatoes prevents watery salsa

• Resting time lets flavors blend

Variations

• Restaurant-Style: Add 1–2 tbsp tomato sauce

• Mild: Skip jalapeño or use half

• Spicy: Add a serrano or pinch of chili powder

• Roasted Salsa: Roast tomatoes, onion, jalapeño, and garlic first

• No Cilantro: Swap with green onion or parsley

Serving Ideas

• Tortilla chips

• Tacos, burritos, quesadillas

• Eggs, grilled chicken, or fish
