Homemade salsa

You know that salsa you get at your favorite Mexican restaurant, the one where you're three baskets of chips in before your food even comes out? This is that salsa, made right in your own kitchen.


This is the salsa we keep in our fridge almost every week. It starts with a can of whole plum tomatoes, so you can make it any time of year, no garden required. Everything goes into the food processor, a few pulses, and you're done. It's quick, it's budget-friendly, and once you make it, you won't want to go back to the jar.

Watch the step-by-step video above to see exactly how I make it, and scroll down for the full recipe card.


Why You'll Love This Salsa

  • It takes about 5 minutes. Toss everything in, pulse, and chill.

  • It's made with pantry staples. Canned tomatoes mean you can make it year-round with consistent flavor every time.

  • It has the perfect kick. A jalapeño plus a serrano gives it real restaurant-style heat.

  • It costs pennies compared to store-bought. One batch makes plenty for chips, tacos, and leftovers.
