  1. Add all the ingredients EXCEPT the tomatoes and green chiles to the blender in the order listed (reserving jalapeno seeds). Blend until evenly chopped, scraping down the sides as needed.
  2. Add the tomatoes and chiles and pulse until the desired consistency is reached. If you like a thinner salsa, you can add some reserved tomato juices.

Notes

  • For a smoother salsa, chop/blend more
  • For a thinner salsa, add juice from the fire roasted tomato cans
  • For a spicier salsa, add some or all of the jalapeno seeds-stirring in a little at a time until it reaches your desired heat level.  You can also add cayenne or ground chipotle chile powder.
