Sounds like a really simple salsa recipe. I bet it would be really good if you used fresh tomatoes and green chiles.

I actually am using some fresh ingredients right now for this recipe :slight_smile: very nice when fresh, of course it won’t last as long as using canned which are loaded with preservatives! And since my husband is on a low sodium diet I have had to make things using a lot less or no salt for him :slight_smile: Learning to cook in a brand new way :slight_smile:

Our local grocery, Foodland (formerly IGA), has a “healthy” house brand called Compliments “Health Equilibre” that includes diced tomatoes with ZERO sodium. Using that in this recipe has to be better than commercial salsa.

Kitchen Witch: I couldn’t agree more! I always try to use fresh. My husband says that I have gone from beeing a very good cook to being a chef now :slight_smile:
