I really think the best part of going to a Mexican restaurant is the chips and salsa they serve you when you sit down. It doesnt hurt that its usually paired with a margarita and great friends but really, there is something about that delicious restaurant style salsa!
I have to prepare Salsa almost every other week as my elder son loves it as an after school snack. Sometimes, he takes in his lunchbox as well. These Salsa recipes taste incredibly fresh with tangy tomatoes or tomatillos, onions and hints of lime, cilantro and cumin. Once you learn how to make homemade salsa, youll never go back to jarred again!
