Oh how I missed store-bought salsa! With its high sodium and sugar content, it was a definite no, no for me. So, I made homemade salsa. What a disappointment! So I tried and tried again and even though I was getting closer to the taste my brain remembered, I just could not achieve it. I looked at all kinds of jarred salsa reminiscing about my favorite snack of chips and salsa. I checked their ingredients hoping to find something magical that I had missed. Well, after many flopped…well not really because they were still good, just not what I was tasting for….batches, I FINALLY came up with an awesome taste that made me forget about that jarred stuff! The only problem…I didn’t measure. I usually eyeball stuff which tends to make things inconsistent. So, the next time I made the salsa, I eyeballed it with a measuring spoon low enough into the bowl so I couldn’t see it…that would have thrown me off! Well, it worked! So here it is…THE BEST SALSA EVER!!!!!
