Appetizers and Dips

Easy Restaurant Style Salsa

Who loves Mexican food, but never gets to eat her meal because she always, always fills up on the free chips and salsa first?  This girl.

This recipe comes together in 5 easy minutes, with very little chopping, and tastes EXACTLY like the stuff that you are served in your favorite Mexican restaurant.  I made this up tonight for some homemade fish tacos (recipe coming) which I will also be serving with my cilantro-lime sour cream.

Enjoy!
