    Roasted Tomato SalsaPin

    If you are a regular reader, you know that I am a fan of Mexican food, and one of my favorite snacks are chips with salsa. My obsession for scratch cooking comes with its drawbacks however, as it won't allow me to open up a jar of store bought salsa. So, I make my own, regardless of how busy or tired I am.

    I've already made Red Tomato Salsa and Tomatillo Salsa, and now I want to share with you anther favorite salsa recipe, Roasted Tomato Salsa. This was absolutely delicious and more than worth the effort!

    Buen provecho!

      I am a salsa junkie, and this one sounds like it would have great smokey flavor from the roasted tomatoes.

      I like fire roasting the veggies for tomato salsa or salsa verde recipes, definitely concentrates the flavors.
