Nothing quite compares to a homemade salsa recipe, and this recipe — given to my mom by her best friend, Juanita, has been in our family for two generations. This recipe is very similar to what you’ll get a most Mexican restaurants in Southern California.
Serve this on top of eggs for a breakfast burrito, with homemade tortilla chips and guacamole as an appetizer, or atop any of your favorite Mexican recipes.
