Pantry Salsa

It’s no big surprise to anyone that I’m in love with Trigger’s Salsa. Seriously, it’s the best salsa I’ve ever put in my mouth……but here’s the kicker – I don’t like to share. Take your hands off my salsa or I might bite you. So, sometimes I need salsa for a recipe or to serve to someone other than myself. I sure ain’t gonna give them my Trigger’s. They can get their own at Walgreens or Food City. When that’s the case, I make this – Pantry Salsa. It’s a Taste of Home recipe and I’ve been making it for years. It’s Barry’s favorite salsa…..tastes just like what they serve at restaurants – and it’s CHEAP! So, let’s make some and make our families happy…..while we hide our Trigger’s behind the pickled pigs feet so no one can find it.

You’ll need diced tomatoes with onion, diced tomatoes with chilies, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, sugar, seasoned salt, and garlic salt. I keep these particular spices in my cabinet……actually, I keep way more than that. I think I might own almost all the spices they sell at the store – except for those that cost a birthright. I always make sure to keep canned tomatoes in stock. Kroger runs them on great Mega Events sometimes, so I always stock up.

You need to drain one can of tomatoes…..the one with onion. I ran some water over mine to help, then I shook it to get the excess water out. If you don’t drain one can, it will be too runny…..and we want to keep all the hot spiciness in the tomatoes with chilies, so leave those alone.

If you want your salsa to be smooth, put both cans of tomatoes into your food processor. If you want it chunky, skip this step. I’ve made it both ways, but I like it pureed better. Makes it seem more like restaurant salsa….and it’s easier to keep on your chip.

Time to add all your spices. I love seasoned salt…..it’s good stuff. I put it on tons of things. It’s really great in scrambled eggs. My awesome friend, Penny, brought me a HUGE container of the stuff from Red Robin. I love her forever.

Give that puppy a whirl! Depending on how chunky you want it, you’ll let it go a while or let it only be working a short time.

As you can see, mine still has little chunks in it. That’s the way uh huh, uh huh I like it. Uh huh, uh huh.

How easy what THAT? It’s pretty awesome. Store it in the fridge. It won’t last long – but only because you’ll eat it.

    Fantastic salsa, made a few minor changes. Used a 28 ounce can of tomatoes, 1 can of green chilies, half an onion, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, 1/4 heaping teaspoon of fresh minced garlic and omitted the sugar. I like that its mild, because you can change the spice level to your liking

    Thanks for sharing this recipe! Compared to a store-bought salsa, how would you rate the spiciness of it (mild, medium, hot)? Thanks!

      For me, it’s mild. You can add more heat by putting in cayenne pepper if you like. 🙂

If you hate it, just scroll on by. 🤍 But it was helpful to us. 🥰⠀
⠀
Often, I have a hard time getting my kids to remember things I’ve taught them, like how to properly clean a toilet or clean mirrors. “I forgot.”⠀
⠀
You know what they don’t forget? Stuff they watch on You Tube. 🤪🤪⠀
⠀
So I went to You Tube and sourced kid videos about cleaning the bathroom. The kids all watched them. ⠀
⠀
Now they’re all cleaning their own bathrooms. Boom. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Worked for us. ⠀
⠀
** Just search on YT for “kid cleaning videos” and see what you find. Different parents have different parameters for what they allow. Barry and I screened videos first but each person can find their own. ❤️🤍

Hard times can make us or break us.

Our family experienced some big changes and shocks and pruning (removing) in 2021. Some days I didn’t want to get out of my house or my bed.⠀
⠀
But already we are coming out of darkness into His wonderful light and I can see - I can see the benefits of hard times. ⠀
⠀
New beautiful growth and hope. ❤️⠀

What is one benefit YOU have experienced from hard times?

I lived for too long believing that hustle was to the benefit of this family. ⠀
⠀
God’s call upon our life isn’t to hustle and grind our days away while we prove our worth and see our success. ⠀
⠀
No, friends. It’s God’s desire that when people look at you and me, they don’t see US or what WE accomplished but instead say:⠀
⠀
Wow, only God did that. ⠀
