Looking for an easy healthy salsa recipe? Here is my favorite. It is so so easy to make but tastes incredible. The fresh flavors blend together so well. You can use this salsa as a dip with chips but it is also fantastic on tacos or another Mexican-inspired meal. You are going to love this so much that you will never want to buy store-bought salsa again. It really can’t compare. This is a great summer party appetizer. Be sure to check out all our easy party planning ideas.

Healthy Salsa Recipe

I call this recipe salsa but I have been informed by many that it is more of a Pico De Gallo. I love that that not only is this recipe super tasty but also is very healthy. There is no added sugar and contains just a few simple ingredients. If you have a garden, this would be a great way to use your tomato crop but you can purchase the tomatoes at the grocery store too.

  • ½ cup fresh cilantro chopped
  • 3 tbs lime juice
  • ½ sweet onion finely chopped
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • jalapeño pepper seeded (use 1/2 for mild salsa and full pepper for spicy)

How To Make Healthy Salsa Recipe

You will not believe how easy this is to make. There are just three things to do!

  • Chop tomatoes into eights
  • Chop cilantro, onion and jalapeño
  • Combine tomatoes, cilantro, onion, jalapeño, salt and lime juice

I hope you enjoy this fresh homemade salsa that you can make without a food processor. You might never go back to store bought salsa again! Simple fresh ingredients makes this healthy recipe super delicious.

    This looks so good and fresh! My husband and son would devour it. Here in Texas we call this pico de gallo.

    In Mexico we call this “Pico de Gallo”, and it’s a great topping for tacos and tostadas 🙂 Coming over from the Inspire Me Monday linky
