Oh Sooo Simple Salsa Recipe

Company coming and no salsa?  No problem…Cherchies Salsa seasoning is here to save the day!   I keep this spice and canned diced tomatoes on hand for those impromptu gatherings.  Fresh tomatoes in season are always best, but here in Pennsylvania in the winter, our options are limited.

Ingredients

• 1 (or 2) cans diced tomatoes, drained
• 1 Tbsp.  Cherchies Salsa Seasoning (more to taste)
• 1 small red onion, chopped (optional)
• 1  green pepper, chopped (optional)

Preparation

Take a can of diced tomatoes (or two depending on your company), and drain the tomatoes.  (Option to add chopped onions and pepper at this point, but not necessary).

Sprinkle some Cherchies Salsa Seasoning…sprinkle some more, and stir.  The more you sprinkle, the spicier it will be.  

You might just have to taste your creation…not that that would be a bad thing.  Be careful, this is for company remember?  This seasoning is soooo yummy.

Add your favorite chips, and voila, simple salsa!  Now I’m hungry!!  Enjoy!
