Need a good fresh tasting salsa recipe? I have lived in Albuquerque New Mexico for over 15 years and out of all the restaurant salsa I have tried, none of their fresh salsa recipes beat either one of the these on our web site. This recipe's flavor is designed to surround its fresh tomato sensation. If you are looking for the more classic roasted Salsa we offer this one too on our Mexican food recipe page.
