FOR THE LOVE OF SALSA!!

So, I absolutely adore mexican cuisine, which means I have a true and deep seeded love of salsa...can I hear areeba-areeba(invision the rolling of the "r" there!).  So I wanted to share with you a recipe that my dear bff so unselfishly shared with little ole me......it's to die for good!!!

We shall call it Over 40 style salsa!!!
INGREDIENTS:
~ 1 can (28 oz.) Whole Tomatoes With Juice
~ 2 cans (10 0z) Rotel, I use 1 can of original and one can of the lime and cilantro mix!!
~ 1/4 cup Chopped Onions ( I use Red Onions and I add a lot more!)
~ 1 Clove Minced Garlic ( I again use about 3!)
~ 1 - 2 tsp. of Diced Jalepenos!!  ( I use Mt. Olive Diced Jalepenos in the jar!)
~ 1/4 tsp of Sugar
~ 1/4 tsp. of Salt
~ 1/4 tsp of Ground Cumin
~ 1/2 cup of Cilantro (or more to taste)
~ 1/2  Whole Lime Juice (Fresh is best!)

Now Do This:
Combine whole tomatoes, Rotel, onion, jalapeno, garlic, sugar, salt, cumin, lime juice and cilantro in a blender or food processor.  Pulse until you get to the desired consistency that you like!  Let this chill for about an hour, this gives all the flavors time to mesh!!!  As always, tweak this recipe to your liking and ENJOY!!!
