Are you looking for a Homemade Salsa that is packed with delicious flavor?

I adore a good salsa. So does my family. However, it is hard to find a really good flavored one that my whole family can enjoy. While I can handle spicier or hot salsas, I much prefer a salsa that is packed with flavor without burning my mouth up.

Yesterday I came home to delicious smells coming from the kitchen. I soon learned my father-in-law was making homemade salsa. We have had a huge crop of tomatoes come in, and we needed to do something with them so they wouldn't go bad. Hence salsa time. It smelled soo good I just had to try it. When I did I had to admit it was some of the best tasting salsa I had ever tried.

I immediately asked for the recipe (which happened to be an old family recipe) so I can make it myself in the future and of course to share with you, for I believe that good recipes should be shared, not kept secret.

You can make this Salsa now with the recipe below or pin it to your Recipes board on Pinterest to make later.

Seriously, this salsa has an amazing flavor without burning your mouth off (well unless you do the spicy version, then it still has a great taste but with quite the kick as well.)

You will find you almost need to make a double batch if you want enough salsa left over after eating to can for later.
