The Best Salsa Recipe + Video

Inspired by a local Cincinnati restaurant this is The Best Salsa Recipe out there!It’s heavenly, as fresh as you can get and is a crowd pleaser!

Listen, if you can use a knife you’ve got this salsa recipe whooped up on! I want you to become comfortable in the kitchen if you are new to creating your very own recipes. This one you can’t really mess up!

So there’s this local joint that popped up down the street called Mazunte’s. It’s a legit Mexican restaurant that we just can’t get enough of. If you are in Cincinnati you’ve got to stop by their place on Madison Road. It’s a bit of a hipster spot so flip flops and tshirts are welcome! Now I usually get their blue corn quesadilla…it’s pretty good and a lot of food as it’s served with white rice. I typically get this and end up splitting it with Bubbyboy.

Now, the salsa is off the hook people. It’s one that I’ve been trying to duplicate at home because I just can’t get enough of it. The girls absolutely love it and because we often get our order to go {it’s no place for 3 small children with the tight quarters!} we don’t all get enough of the salsa, some are left complaining they wanted more!

I’m pretty sure I’ve come close to Mazunte’s recipe and is one we munch on throughout the week. Beanies also loves packing this in her lunch with a few tortillas! I also take this salsa recipe down to camp because the longer you let it marinate in the refrigerator the better it becomes!

Ingredients You Need to Make The Best Salsa Recipe

• Tomatoes
• Green Pepper
• Cilantro
• Red Onion
• Limes
• Salt
• Sugar

How do you make the best salsa ever?

• • In a large bowl add in tomatoes, green pepper, cilantro and red onion.

• • Stir the salsa mixture.

• • Slice open two limes and squeeze in the juice directly into the bowl.

• • Sprinkle in the salt and lime, mix until combined.

• Refrigerator at least 30 minutes prior to serving for best results.

How Long Will Fresh Salsa Last?

As long as you keep the salsa recipe covered in the refrigerator it can last up to 4 to 5 days. I often make my salsa the day ahead of time and let sit in the refrigerator before I need to use it. This allows the flavors to marinate and the tomatoes to sweat off a little of the liquid, which is added flavor.
