My Take On Chili's Salsa

If you have ever been to Chili's Bar and Grill, which undoubtedly you have, you KNOW their chips and salsa is to die for! You have choice when you go there, either order the chips and salsa, and consider that your meal, OR don't order them at all! You cannot eat just one, or two, or even three. You WILL fill up, and leave no room for the main course. Am I alone here? Well anyway, I think this salsa comes pretty darn close to the real deal! What do you think?

My Take On Chili's Salsa

1 14 1/2oz can of Ro-Tel
1 14 1/2oz can whole peeled tomatoes, UN DRAINED
1 1/2 tablespoon finely diced raw jalapeno (include seeds only if you want your salsa to be hot.)
1/4 cup diced onion
3/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon sugar

The Process:
1. Place Ro-Tel, tomatoes, onion, jalapenos, garlic salt, cumin and sugar in blender or food processor. Blend until thin, but not completely pureed. (Think Chili's salsa.)
2. Pour into a covered container and chill for at least 2 hours. The longer you chill, the more the flavors meld together.
3. Serve with thin warm tortilla chips, and Enjoy!
