This is a greater starter recipe for salsa! I loved liquedy salsa with good chunks in it and this recipe definitely gives you that! The salsa itself is very mild so I spent some time doctoring mine to suit the spicy tastes of my family. But, if you are looking for a quick, easy salsa recipe, this is for you!
