I first debuted this terrific salsa on the blog about 5 or 6 years ago. Since then, it's become a staple in our house and requested by countless family members for parties.
When you make something literally hundreds of times, sometimes a funny thing happens. You end up tweaking it, making it even more your own, and one day you realize you aren't following the original recipe you began with. Sure, the base it still there, and the concept is the same, but it's now one you have memorized and the exact formula that makes it perfect every time.
This comes with a few warnings. One, if it's sitting in your fridge, nobody will be able to stay out of it. Two, if you take it to a party, be sure to take the recipe too. Everyone will want it. Three, make sure you only make it for people you really, really like because they will keep coming around for more!
From Mexican night to snacking around the pool all summer, this will be your go-to. From start to finish, you have about 10 minutes in the whole thing, making it perfect for those impromptu guests too!
