Restaurant Style Salsa

I seriously love this!!  It's a new staple among those I dine with ;)  (mainly Matt's family)
I even had a missionary ask for the recipe after he tried it - that's right!  I'm gonna be one of those "sisters on my mission" ladies that make it hard for future wives to be awesome!  :)

I freeze jalapenos in the summer, so the only thing I can't stock up on is fresh cilantro, but that's never too expensive!

Ingredients

  • 1 can (28 Ounce) Whole Tomatoes With Juice
  • 2 cans (10 Ounce) Rotel (diced Tomatoes And Green Chilies)
  • 1/4 cup Chopped Onion
  • 1 clove Garlic, Minced
  • 1 whole Jalapeno, Quartered And Sliced Thin
  • 1/4 teaspoon Sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ground Cumin
  • 1/2 cup Cilantro (more To Taste!)
  • 1/2 whole Lime Juice

Preparation Instructions

Note: Recommend using a 12-cup food processor, or you can process the ingredients in batches and then mix everything together in a large mixing bowl.  (I do the second method because I don't have a big food processor.)
Combine whole tomatoes, Rotel, onion, jalapeno, garlic, sugar, salt, cumin, lime juice, and cilantro in a food processor. Pulse until you get the salsa to the consistency you'd like---I do about 6-10 pulses. Test seasonings with a tortilla chip and adjust as needed.
Refrigerate salsa for at least an hour. Serve with tortilla chips or ANYTHING ELSE!
