Roast jalapeno on a grill or in an ungreased skillet over medium high heat, turning until blackened on all sides, about 5 to10 minutes, and place in a small plastic baggie until cooled. Remove the seeds after cooled if you prefer less heat flavor.
Place tomatoes, jalapeno, and garlic in a blender or food processor and pulse until chunky. Season with salt to taste keeping in mind the amount of sodium already in the canned tomatoes and add cilantro if desired. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 4 days or even freeze for up to 3 months.

In food processor place jalapenos and onions. Process for just a few seconds. Add both cans of tomatoes, garlic salt, cumin and sugar. Process all ingredients until well blended but do not puree. Place in covered container and chill for about 2 hours.

To roast tomatoes, place tomatoes on broiler pan, and broil 4 inches from heat for 5 minutes. Turn, and roast 5 minutes more. Cool 10 minutes. Peel away charred skin; halve and core tomatoes. Squeezing slightly, remove seeds and liquid. Chop tomatoes, and place in medium bowl.
Add chopped red pepper and jalapenos, garlic, cilantro, zest, salt, lime juice, and oil; mix well. Let stand 1 hour to allow flavors to blend, or store, covered, in refrigerator. To serve, warm to room temperature.

Mix all ingredients together. Ready to eat immediately or later when chilled. Can be stored in a canning jar in the refrigerator for two weeks or more. Believe me, this will not be in the fridge two weeks.

There are no amounts for this recipe. It is a "dump" recipe. Add as much or as little as you would like. Also, you can add different vegetables if you prefer.

I'm looking for a salsa recipe. Please help!

This is my favorite salsa recipe - it's delightfully sweet while you're eating it, but once swallowed you'll notice a nice zing from the peppers. It's not your normal salsa/picante sauce :-)
1 gal tomatoes
2 cups onion
2 cups bell pepper
1 cup hot peppers (jalepeno or habenero)
1 quart vinegar
2 cups sugar
1 Tblsp cinnamon
1 Tblsp nutmeg
1 Tblsp salt
Dice onion & all peppers (use rubber gloves for hot peppers!!). Peel & cut tomatoes up. Mix all ingredients, boil until desired thickness. May use cornstarch to thicken if needed. Can as usual.
I am looking for the recipe for a really good authentic salsa like they serve in the real Mexican restaurants. Thanks so much.
The salsa I've always had at Mexican restaurants is a very fresh pico de gallo, which is extremely simple to make. Fresh tomatoes, a little chopped onion (I like to use sweet onion), a little or a lot of fresh cilantro, and freshly squeezed lime juice. Adjust amounts to taste. You can add jalapenos for heat.
Mix all ingredients in food processor.

Combine all ingredients in food processor and process until nearly pureed, yet still chunky. Pour into covered container and store in fridge. Best if made at least an hour ahead of time to let flavors develop. Stir well before serving.

Here is a great salsa recipe:
In a blender, mix the Jalapenos and Tomatoes on pulse for chunky or puree for more liquid. Pour into a medium size bowl and add spices, mix well. Allow to chill for about 30 min to 1 hr then enjoy with tortilla chips. More or less of any ingredient may be used according to taste.
