Cheap Cheez

LOL — I directed someone earlier to a post on how to make your own salsa.

Not a bad idea seeing as we learned how to cut our grocery bill by making our own goods.

Bad Idea because I have not written an article on how to make salsa. LOL - my wife asked me where the article was and I said ‘It’s on the website.’  NOT! –> So here it is.

We save 50% + on salsa . What made us start to make our own?  It’s really simple and the cost of salsa was over $4 for a little jar in our grocery store.

You simply buy one thirty-two ounce can of diced tomatoes.  One small can of green chili peepers.  One small onion and a small batch of cilantro.  The cilantro is with your lettuce and what not in green section.

Dice the onions small.  Cut the cilantro into small pieces, stems and all, about 1/4 to 1/2 cup depending on taste.  I like to fry the cilantro and onion in butter but you do not have to.  Now mix it all together in a saucepan and bring to a boil for 15 minutes.  Bammm!  You have some really great salsa and for less than 1/2 the price with twice as much product.  BTW, the cilantro really makes the salsa.

Enjoy.
