Blender Salsa

This blender salsa is so easy to make and so delicious! If you have 5 minutes you can make this salsa and it tastes great!

I personally could drink this salsa or eat my weight in chips and this salsa. In fact, I promptly devoured the bowl of salsa pictured here immediately after photographing it. Just one taste and the bowl is a goner if I am around.

A lot of times salsas take a day or two to become their best and have all the flavors blend together just perfectly. While this salsa definitely gets better the longer it sits, I love that all the flavors instantly blend and it’s delicious immediately.

This salsa can be made to any heat preference by adjusting the peppers added. For a mild salsa you can use a Anaheim chili pepper with no seeds, for a little more heat you can use a jalapeno with the seeds removed, more heat you can add 2 deseeded jalapenos, for spicy, add a whole jalapeno, for extra hot add two jalapenos. It’s completely adaptable.

I personally love it with 2 deseeded jalapenos so it has a little kick but isn’t too spicy.

This salsa will store in your refrigerator for about 1-2 weeks. The lime juice in this recipe helps to preserve the tomatoes and peppers a little. You can also freeze this salsa because everything is already blended you won’t notice the softening of the onions, peppers and tomatoes when they defrost and it tastes great.
