Salsa has never been easier – this easy blender salsa features all fresh ingredients (no cans). It tastes amazing with chips and salsa but also complements recipes nicely as well.

How to Make Salsa in a Blender

There are few foods I enjoy snacking on more than chips and salsa.

In fact, the primary reason I’ll select a Mexican restaurant is just to get the chips and salsa!

There’s just something so delicious about fresh-made salsa and tortilla chips.

You would think with how much I love salsa, I would make it more at home…but honestly, I don’t!

I searched around for different recipes that people recommended, and so many of them required canned tomatoes.

I’m totally NOT against canned anything – but sometimes, you just want something fresh.

Most of them also required a food processor – which I have…but I didn’t want to go dig through our boxes from our recent move to find it!

Because of that, I wanted to make an easy blender salsa I could make in just minutes.

So I decided to head to the store, grab a bunch of fresh ingredients, throw them in the blender, and see what happened.

How to Make Salsa in a Blender

You guys – it was SO good! My boys devoured it, it tasted great with chips and salsa, and it also tasted amazing in a crockpot taco soup I made.

If you are looking for a fresh tomato blender salsa – then look no further. We’ve got you covered.

I love that you don’t have to worry about cutting up the salsa too finely

One thing to keep in mind is that this is a very smooth salsa. If you are looking for something chunkier, you may be better off with another recipe. But this one is smooth, has a bit of spice to it, and it tastes great.

Equipment Needed:

  • Blender (I recommend a high powered one. I use a BlendTec).
  • Cutting Board
  • Pairing knife

Ingredients:

  • 6 Roma tomatoes
  • 1 jalapeno – seeds removed (unless you like it spicy!)
  • 1/3 cup red onion, chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon minced garlic
  • Handful cilantro
  • Salt (I used about 1 teaspoon)
  • Pepper (I used about 1 teaspoon)
  • 1 Tablespoon Lime juice

Instructions:

  1. Wash and dry vegetables
  2. Chop up ingredients – feel free to keep them larger if you have a high-powered blender.
  3. Place vegetable blender and blend until smooth or desired consistency. If your blender seems to be having issues, add in a tablespoon or two of water.
  4. Add salt, pepper and lime juice to taste. Mix well.
  5. Store in refrigerator in an airtight container for up to one week.
