WOW umm how horrible was the Super Bowl last night?!
I’m a Redskins fan, but was really rooting for Peyton to take home the win…..I definitely did NOT expect it to be almost a complete shut out! Luckily some of the commercials were pretty good (yeah how cute were the family of dogs?!) and Bruno Mars was entertaining, so there was that.
But enough of Super Bowl let-downs, here’s my favorite salsa! I’m posting this first because you’ll need this recipe if you want to make the crock pot salsa chicken I’m always talking about. This is a VERY easy and basic salsa recipe, but I love it because of all the HEAT and great flavor! If you like your salsa spicy, I would suggest adding two jalapenos instead of one……I definitely did. Just throw everything in your food processor and voila!

Hi! Making your salsa today and was wondering if I can use Splenda instead of stevia since it’s all I have at home right now? Thanks!
Absolutely!
I LOVE your recipes. I come to your blog every weekend to plan my weekly meals! Just wondering- why do you add Stevia and do you think it makes a big difference? I try to avoid adding sweetness to my food as a general rule.
It’s definitely not necessary and won’t change the the flavors in this salsa (or other recipes), but sometimes I like a little added sweetness with spicy flavors 🙂 Stevia is an all-natural sweetener so I like to use a pinch of it rather than sugar, but it’s all based on personal preference!
This is really good salsa. I have the good fortune to have access to fresh roasted green chiles. I can’t wait to use this salsa on and with many things. Thanks!
Just made the salsa with homemade pitta chips, it’s delicious
Xxx
I just made this salsa and it is seriously the BEST salsa ever! I used 4 jalapeño peppers to make it a little hotter and it’s simply amazing! 🙂
