Blue Ribbon Fresh Salsa image

I love getting the blue ribbon winning recipes to make at home. Given the way the garden looks, this recipe is right on time. From The Wichita Eagle who reported, "This recipe was a first-place winner in the tomato category at the Kansas State Fair and was submitted by Tom Jasso of Hutchinson." This recipe proves again that sometimes simple is best.Go Tom!

What a fresh and tasty salsa! We could eat this with tortilla chips ... or a big spoon. Don't shy away from the dried chili flakes. It really gives this salsa an extra kick of flavor.

GARDEN FRESH SALSA



Garden Fresh Salsa image

A simple fresh salsa for your next cookout. It's a refreshing salsa that's bursting with flavor. Tomatoes are a base for salsa. Peppers not only add color but a nice crunch. We opted to add 1 can of jalapenos and 1 can of green chiles and loved the heat from that combination. Lemon and lime juice adds a tartness and balances out...

Time 2h45m

Number Of Ingredients 10

8-10 medium tomatoes
2 green peppers
2 yellow peppers
2 orange peppers
1 large onion
2 can(s) diced jalapeno, 4 oz each (use chopped green chiles if you want it milder)
1 lemon, juiced
1 lime, juiced
salt to taste (it seems like i use quite a bit)
1/4 - 1/2 c chopped cilantro (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Chop up all tomatoes, peppers, and onion. Combine in a large bowl.
  • 2. Drain jalapenos (if you're using the green chiles, no need to drain them) and add them to the bowl.
  • 3. Roll the lemon & lime on the counter, pressing it with your hand before cutting them in half (you'll get more juice this way). Either use a juicer or squeeze the juice into your hand to catch any seeds.
  • 4. If using the optional cilantro, add it to the mixture (about 1/4 - 1/2 cup chopped).
  • 5. Add salt and mix well. Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours for flavors to combine well. I usually let it chill overnight.
  • 6. Serve with chips (the Scoops tortilla chips work well) or use on anything you put salsa on. I've put in on baked potatoes, on chicken before baking, etc... use your imagination!
