Oven Roasted Salsa
I always have at least one container of salsa in my fridge, which I eat on just about everything. I previously shared a recipe I love for Spicy Green Tomato Salsa, which has really rich flavours, the result of cooking it down for almost an hour. This oven roasted salsa is much faster to prepare and doesn’t require you to spend hours chopping everything into tiny pieces (I’m looking at you salsa fresca!).

Oven Roasted Salsa
This oven roasted salsa is incredibly easy to whip up. Simply cut all of the vegetables into chunks (the size really doesn’t matter) and roast them in the oven for 10 minutes until they get nicely charred.


The burnt parts of the skins will add a delicious roasted taste to the salsa and give the flavours a bit more depth then you would get with fresh salsa. Once everything is cooked toss it all into a blender or food processor and pulse for a few seconds ensuring the texture remains nice and chunky.


If you like spicy food then I recommend adding in another 1 to 2 jalapenos, or alternatively you can stir a pinch of chili powder through the salsa once it is all blended. This salsa is a tasty and healthy condiment to keep stocked in your fridge. I love having a big scoop with scrambled eggs in the morning for breakfast, on chicken burgers for lunch or with pork tacos for dinner.
