Recipe Introduction
This perfectly scoop-able Last Minute Salsa is a classic tomato salsa that is whipped up in a flash (no chopping required). It is speckled with bits of onion, garlic, and cilantro for an extra freshness. This salsa is so easy you can make it in 10 minutes (it takes me 5) . The best part is, you can add it to left over chicken, burgers, casseroles and viola you have the perfect left over dinner.
