Okay, I’ll admit it. I’m kind of a salsa snob. But it’s totally acceptable because I put salsa on pretty much everything. Somewhat similar to my guacamole habits. But salsa can just brighten up any dish. And growing up in the Southwest, there was no shortage of different kinds of salsa!
It only makes sense for me to make my own salsa. Between me and my boyfriend, we go through about 3 cups of salsa a week! I throw it on just about everything from grilled fish, BBQ chicken, steaks, bowls of quinoa and of course to top the age old favorite – nachos!! Homemade salsa is great because it takes almost no prep work and it’s pretty hard to mess up. Just throw a bunch of ingredients into a food processor and give it a whirl!
Today, I wanted to share my all time favorite salsa recipe. It’s a blend of fire roasted tomatoes, fresh cherry tomatoes, jalapenos and chipotle peppers! The chipotles give it that extra kick and smokiness. This salsa makes for an excellent addition to nachos. Or throw a spoonful into your guacamole next time you make some. It’s a winner. You have to make this!

This looks like a winner! And I’m a total salsa snob too! I love that it uses some fresh tomatoes since I have a ton in the garden and some canned.
Your recipe sounds wonderful! I recently made my first homemade salsa.
Fresh is BEST! It sounds wonderful — YUM!
Fresh salsa is the best. I like that you use the food processor for yours. Less chopping = more time to munch!
I’m headed to Mexico right now! Im in the airport. I will be sure to eat plenty of salsa and guac in your honor
I love salsa with my grilled cheese! This sounds perfect.
This sounds amazing! Great recipe
Glad to know I am not the only salsa snob! Thanks for sharing this simple and delicious recipe
I ‘heart’ salsa ALOT!
What a cute container for chips and salsa! Where did you get it?
Seriously I go through about a cup of salsa per day. MUST try this recipe.
Oh, honey – You had me at “chipotle.”
Wow! I love fresh salsa and I bet this taste great. I keep seeing chipotle peppers in adobo in recipes but haven’t found them yet in a store. I search up and down the hispanic food section yesterday!
I’m a salsa snob too! Life’s too short not to be.
I love smokey chipotles too! I can’t wait to try it!
I love your guac with chipoltles so I think I will like this as well.
