I love chips and salsa. Who doesn't really? Apparently, The Pioneer Woman and I share the same passion in salsa. I found her recipe and knew I wanted to make it immediately. Restaurant style — it just sounds good. It was everything I hoped for in a salsa. It has nice heat and very flavorful. If you don't want the heat, just omit the jalapeno.
This recipe made two large mason jars full, so it will last awhile. We've went through a bag of chips and have one mason jar left. It's really hard to stop eating - just the same as being at a Mexican restaurant. If you want step by step picture instructions visit The Pioneer Woman's recipe. I'm not even trying to compete with those gorgeous photos.

1/2 whole fresh lime juice
DIRECTIONS
Combine whole tomatoes, Rotel, onion, jalapeno, garlic, sugar, salt, cumin, lime juice, and cilantro in a blender or food processor. Pulse until you get the salsa to the consistency you’d like—I do about 10 to 15 pulses. Test seasonings with a tortilla chip and adjust as needed.
Refrigerate salsa for at least an hour. Serve with tortilla chips or cheese nachos.
