Quick salsa

Quick salsa

We may be cutting a few corners in preparation time, but we're not sacrificing any flavor in the process! This Quick salsa is easy to make and so much tastier than any store-bought version we've ever come across. Play with the spice level and take it from mild to hot as you dare! This salsa pairs beautifully with eggs, meat, fish, and veggies.

Instructions

Instructions are for 6 servings. Please modify as needed.

  1. Place the roughly chopped tomatoes, red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño in a food processor and pulse until evenly chopped. It does not need to be smooth; aim for a pea-sized chop.
  2. Transfer to a bowl, stir in the lime juice and sea salt. Taste, and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Tips

If you don't have a food processor you can finely chop all the ingredients by hand.

Serve alongside any Mexican dish. This is particularly delicious with our Keto huevos rancheros with cheese ‘tortillas’.

Not a fan of cilantro? Don't like spicy jalapeños? Feel free to leave them out.

This salsa keeps well for up to three days in the fridge.
