I absolutely love the mild salsa at our local Mexican restaurant. So, I decided to fight my winter blues with a burst of summer and try my hand at making my own salsa from scratch. Now you have to know that I am a total light weight when it comes to heat, so we made our salsa with sweet bell peppers instead of hot peppers.

Notes

  • Nutritional values including calories vary depending on exact ingredients you choose to use.
  • We used a 4.5 Quart Round Crock Pot to whip this up. You could probably make it in a 4 quart slow cooker, but not smaller.
  • Our BlendTec Blender was super good and chopping things up fine. Almost too fine. Next time I think I may use our food processor instead.

      Hi Wendy!

      I keep it in the fridge for up to 10 days.

      Enjoy!

    I do enjoy a good salsa! I’ve never made one you cook before. Interesting!

  4. Why not cut the Roma and Sunburst tomatoes before cooking them?

      Hi Sharon-

      There is no need. I cut up the peppers and onions so they will cook faster, but the tomatoes cook up just fine and then the blender takes care of chopping them up during that step. Enjoy!

  5. Where’s the Jalapeno’s???

      Hi Melanie-

      Feel free to add if you want. As I mention in the post, we don’t enjoy the heat, so we left them out. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    Hi Judi-
    The sweetness of the bell peppers were enough to cut the acid for us, but it you feel it needs it, I don’t think it would hurt anything. Enjoy!

    Would adding a bit of sugar benefit this recipe?
