Restaurant-Style Salsa (Pioneer Woman)
"I must say I was skeptical of making salsa with other than fresh tomatoes, but i was pleasantly surprised. Like Pioneer Woman, I also don't like most of the store-bought salsa because of the vinegar flavor. I used diced tomatoes instead of whole and a lot more cilantro, but the recipe is posted as written. Recipe courtesy of The Pioneer Woman Cooks, Food From My Frontier."

A staple in my family - as in I make this probably once a week (at least). We don't do spice so I omit the pepper but everything else as is. -
I made as written the first time, but cut in half just for the two of us. It needs more heat for us so I add 2 jalapenos, 2 serranos and a habanero. YUMMY! -
This salsa is very good. It rivals restaurant recipes and tastes fresh. The ingredients meld even better when saving it till the next day. Ree's recipe from the food network site shows using seeds and membranes for the salsa. That made a very spicy salsa. To tone it down seed and take out the membranes. Otherwise it goes beautifully with food, chips, tacos, eggs, etc. It makes a large batch as well so perfect for a potluck or party. Thanks for posing AmyZoe! Enjoy ChefDLH -

I love to try new recipes, and this is a wonderful site to find new additions. I rarely make the same thing twice because it's so much fun to try something different. My life long dream is to travel the world and eat my way around it.
