Mandy's Simple Salsa for Nachos

"This is my salsa recipe, I came up with this after many visits to Taco Bill & it tastes just like theirs. It is sooo simple to make but just perfect for Nacho's, much better than any in a jar in my opinion. If you like things extra spicy add more chilli if desired. Leftovers can be frozen too but will be more watery upon defrosting."

  1. Lovely salsa Mandy...I used my canned tomatoes from the garden, and fresh jalapenos, red peppers, and the chili. Wowsier, this is my kinda salsa, and loved the spice and the kick it gave. I halved this easily, but next weekend will be making more. I used a white onion, they seem perky and crisp, and really like the use of that particular onion in this salsa. Thanks for posting this wonderful recipe, and we loved it! Made for *!23 Wonders* Tag Game. January 2009.
     
  2. Loved it! I used red and yellow capsicums instead of green and about 2 Tablespoons of jalepeno peppers and wow it was spicy !I served it to a crowd of 16 adult guests with blanched cauliflower and broccoli, cuccumber sticks, capsicum sticks and Nacho's too... the more adventurous amongst them loved it and those less liking fire found it a bit much, but *that's my fault entirely* as I overdid the heat more then a little. DH liked it better than I did... ideally I should have added the *recomended* amount of hot pepper and gone from there but over enthusiasm got the better of me. This clears the sinus's excellently I might add LOL. I'm keeping half of the leftovers as is, for DH to enjoy finishing with Nachos and will mix the other half into his next lot of pasta sauce for the freezer to pep up some of his pasta hot lunches. Please see my rating system: a lovely 4 stars. Thanks!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Melbourne I live on a 5 acre property in the Dandenong Ranges Victoria, Australia, having moved from the burbs when I became pregnant with my now 15 year old daughter Alyssa. Once my daughter was born I became a stay at home mum as I couldn't bear the thought of putting her in daycare. She is the light of my life, I never imagined myself as a mum when younger but now wouldn't have it any other way. Alyssa was made a big sister on the 19th April 2010 when our cheeky little boy Blake was born. I love cooking and experimenting with new recipes so quickly become addicted to Zaar as it was previously known & still use it regularly. In addition to being my kids taxi :lol: I also spend my time, reading, gardening and of course shopping. I'm lucky enough that we have the space & so love growing our own fruits, vegies & herbs, this also means we have plenty of room for animals & at the moment have 2 dogs, Max, a Jackshund who's 6, Fletcher, a Kelpie who's 4, 6 cats Snowpea, Fergus, Ginger, Tango, Annie & Cookie, 4 chooks & 2 Ducks. As well as our pets, we also have a lot of native animals around our area, we have kangaroos, wombats, echidna's, possums as well as rosella's, galah's & Cockatoo's hence the name of where I live..
