With just 4 ingredients, there’s only 5 minutes separating you from this delicious 5 Minute Salsa. Unexpected guests? No problem!
Sometimes I like to watch old episodes of Beverly Hills 90210 on Amazon Prime because I loved that show when it was on. It’s a little cheesy watching it now just like when I try to watch Saved By The Bell. But I can’t stop till I get through it all again. And when I’m binge watching anything on Netflix or Amazon Prime, I need snacks. And I need them quick. It’s also a great appetizer for Cinco de Mayo!
I have discovered that my husband and kids have this special radar that goes off telling them when I am about to get comfortable and eat anything. They come home from where ever they are/need something/get hurt/just need to have my attention at that very moment. It’s a real thing. The other night, I had just made dinner and got my kids all dished up and I had my plate of food ready to eat and on the table when in walks my husband. When anything like this happens, I quote Ralphie from A Christmas Story when he says “My Mom hasn’t had a warm meal in 17 years” or whatever it is, but I always say it. Don’t get all upity on me and say “why can’t her husband get his own food?” Well, he can, but I like to help him out while he cleans himself up after working on the farm all the live long day. Anyway. This 5 Minute Salsa is a quick snack that I can make and hopefully eat before my family’s radar goes off.
- 1 (14.5 oz) can stewed tomatoes, undrained
- 1 (10 oz) can diced tomatoes with green chiles, undrained
- ½ an onion, cut into chunks
- ¼ tsp. garlic powder
- ½ tsp. ground black pepper
- Place all ingredients in a blender and pulse until it has the consistency you prefer.
- Place into a serving bowl and garnish of chopped cilantro if you want. You can also add some to the salsa when blending.
I think snacking whole netflixing is a MUST,and it doesn’t get better than chips and salsa
You can’t beat just 5 minutes & 4 ingredients! This is a great recipe to have on hand when you realize you are out of salsa on taco night. 😉
My husband and kids (especially the kids!) are the same 🙂 I have been looking for an easy homemade salsa recipe for awhile now, I love this one because you don’t have to chop anything up! Pinning and will try it 🙂

I love quick recipes like this. I usually always keep salsa stocked, but there is always a salsa emergency around here, LOL!
