    Excellent and Easy Salsa recipe. I'm on a low salt diet so I used "no salt added" canned tomatoes and omitted the added salt, and it was still great. The spice of the peppers compensates for the salt. It's better than most store bought salsas and better for you if you omit the salt in the recipe.

    So good! I only put 3 serrano chilis, because thats all I had. And I only had a large can of fire roasted diced tomatoes, so I put about 4 tablespoon of tomatoes, draining as much liquid as possible. I also did add the onion at the last pulse, too. This was very good. I think I did need more tomatoes from the can, though. This was really spicy, too. So beware, and I would add the chilis to taste.

    This is an excellent salsa. I should have read more into the name of it because I needed a firehouse to put out the fire in my mouth! I'll probably try it again but with more tomatoes and fewer peppers. My son, who loves hot and spicy, ate it up. It made a GREAT guacamole salsa. After trying this recipe, I doubt I will ever buy salsa again. It is so easy.
