Rehabilitating Salsa

No time to make salsa fresh? Here's a summer solution I just figured out. Just take whatever bland jar salsa you have on hand (like the huge bottle of Costco salsa we have in the fridge), dice a fresh tomato, chop up some fresh cilantro, and then mix into a bowl of the bottled salsa. (I'm sure you could do the same with roasted garlic or peppers.) Fact is: salsa isn't meant to be bottled because it immediately loses what makes it special--that fresh from the garden taste. But it does make a decent salsa tomato base, so just add back in the fresh stuff and ... voila! Great salsa.
