Sheesh. I had no idea. I’ve made homemade salsa a number of times. It wasn’t terribly difficult, but it wasn’t crazy easy either. I started looking around for a better way and kept hearing about a spicy tomato sauce that people were using as a base for making salsa. El Pato tomato sauce is apparently the key to easy salsa success. So I grabbed a few cans at our local international market and got to making this quick fix spicy salsa. This isn’t fancy, but boy does it ever hit the spot. Perfectly tomato-y, perfectly spicy and with the just right amount of cilantro and onion. And wow is it ever easy to make.

The Only Salsa That’s Easier Comes From A Jar
It seriously takes you long to read this sentence than it does to make a batch of this quick fix spicy salsa. Ok, well, you’d have to be a crazy good onion and cilantro chopper, but it’s probably possible. Don’t let the simplicity fool you either, this salsa has great flavor. I found it very difficult to stop eating it. Just grab a bag of your favorite tortilla chips and make a batch today!
This salsa is great on top of hot dogs!
