Homemade Newbie
Grew my first garden this year and needed to use up some my cherry tomatoes, and green peppers so I thought I’d start my salsa journey. I didn’t have all the ingredients I wanted but I used what I had. Definitely amazing and will be getting more ingredients for the next batch. I’m here for all the advice and tips and tricks.
Recipe: Oven roasted, then broiled: Cherry tomatoes, yellow onion, green pepper, garlic. Added salt and lime juice after blending.
Next time I’d like to use jalapeño instead of green pepper, white onion instead of yellow, and add cilantro!

Needs a heat element. You can add dashes of hot sauce to individual servings to see what flavors you like.
Technique is solid though. That's how I always make salsas. I've done pico a few times but I don't do raw onion so it always falls a little flat without it...

Going to need to spice that up a bit with some hot sauce but otherwise looking decent.

Hey do what works.
Spicy pepper plants grow just as easily as green pepper plants. Next year you can add one to the garden if you want.
