Chipotle Mexican Grill calls this their mild salsa. I call it awesome! This Chipotle Tomato Salsa Copycat recipe is EXACTLY like the original! Just a few simple ingredients + one bowl is all you need! Healthy + easy + gluten free + oil-free + vegan! Prefection!
This is a beautiful, colorful, flavorful salsa very similar to Pico de Gallo. It comes together in minutes with just a little chopping of fresh veggies. I love to eat this salsa on its own as a salad. You could even toss in an avocado for a quick avocado salad. Layer it in your burrito or pile it on your taco!
If you know me, you know I LOVE CHIPOTLE! When I go to Chipotle, I get 2 heaping scoops of the mild salsa. This one is my absolute favorite on the menu!
Tara’s Tips for Perfect Tomato Salsa:
- Use fresh ingredients! This salsa turns out best with only fresh tomatoes, onions, jalapenos, and cilantro!
- Adjust salt, lemon + lime. Totally customizable! Love lemon? Add more!
- What else can you add in? Avocado, mango, pineapple, or even bell peppers.
- Spice it up! Need more spice? Add in an extra jalapeno.
- Not into spice? Take the seeds out of your jalapeno before you mix it into your salsa.
