Salsa Correction

For quite some time I had been on the hunt for really good salsa.  I found what I thought to be the best salsa over at PW's site.  I wrote about it.  I made it all the time.  I shared the recipe.  I ate a ton of it.  Then I had my friend Jen's salsa and everything changed.  Time actually stopped. 

Then it started again.  

And when it did I went down on my knees and begged that girl for her salsa recipe.  No, I didn't.  I actually emailed her a few days after her party and calmly asked her for her recipe.

Jen does not like lumps so she throws the whole thing in a blender or food processor.  I feel precisely the same way about my salsa.  We're salsa BFFs.

Jen's Salsa
1 package salsa seasoning mix (I know!  I never thought of this!), I use hot
1/2 a sweet onion, more if you like more
a handful of cilantro, that's what she said
1 can Mexican stewed tomatoes
1 can Rotel

Ole! 
This particular batch does not have fresh cilantro in it.  Mostly because I was in the canned tomato aisle before I realized I had not grabbed the cilantro in the produce department.  Sheer laziness ensued and I grabbed a can of Rotel with cilantro and lime instead.  You're thinking Trail Blazer, aren't you?


Be a salsa BFF with me... you know you want to.
