There's just something about salsa that makes me positively giddy. I've always been a chips and salsa type of girl but can't stand the flavor of store bought salsa. Nothing can compare to the taste of fresh, homemade salsa. My favorite little hole in the wall, family owned Mexican Restaurant has the best salsa I've ever had the pleasure of placing upon my taste buds. After years of frequenting this place and many oohs and aahs later, I finally worked up the courage to ask for the recipe. It was a case of ask and you shall receive. So, without further ado, I'm going to share the recipe with you.

2 14.5 oz cans of diced tomatoes, drained
1/2 onion, finely diced
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 Tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 Jalapeno, seeded
1/4 Cup cilantro

DIRECTIONS
Place all of the ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend on low 10-30 seconds depending on the desired consistency. While it tastes great right away, you get the best flavor if you make it up in the morning or the night before. When you're ready to eat, grab your favorite tortilla chips, a bottle of Tacate (or whatever your favorite Cerveza may be) and enjoy.
