I found a great recipe on Pinterest for homemade salsa that I just had to modify and try for myself.

The recipe for homemade salsa is for a thin salsa, very similar to what's served in many Mexican restaurants. It's not a chunky pico de gallo but a nice smooth salsa.

My recipe consists of:

1 can of diced tomatoes

1 can of Rotel (tomatoes + peppers)

1/2 chopped onion

1 clove garlic

1 teaspoon of agave nectar (the original calls for honey - I like the agave substitute as it makes the salsa vegan and more authentically Mexican)

1/2 teaspoon of salt

1/4 teaspoon of cumin

1 lime juiced

a bunch of cilantro.

Puree all the ingredients in a blender. I made this a few hours before dinner and let it chill.
