Ma J,
You asked for the coveted, ancient, secret "SALSA" recipe - passed through my family for generations of hardworking salsa farmers. It is the only recipe known to win instant taste bud delight from distinguished salsa-taste testers. Moreover, it is fresher than the salsa that they serve at Chevy's, so maybe they should slap Chevy's face...
Enough of my silliness, here is the Salsa - happy chip dipping!
1 - large (32 oz) can of crushed tomatoes
1 - 8 oz can of diced tomatoes
1 can of green chilies
1 ripe tomato, diced
1/2 RED onion, diced (red gives it great flavor)
1/2 fresh green bell pepper, diced
3 hot yellow peppers, diced (you could add more if you want it extra spicy)
dash of Tabasco sauce
1 T - chili powder
1 tsp - cumin
dash of garlic salt
1 tsp salt, optional
1/3 bunch of fresh cilantro, diced
1 ripe avocado, diced
Directions:
Find a suitable (large) mixing bowl and pour cans of crush tomato, diced tomato and green chilies into bowl. Dice Red Onion, Green Pepper, Tomato and hot yellow pepper and mix in the bowel. Add chili powder, cumin, garlic salt and salt with dash of Tabasco and mix well. Add optional cilantro and Avocado. Taste test with a chip. Serve chilled.
Note: this is chunky salsa, so you may want to put it through a food processor
