A dried herb and pepper mix for quick salsa with canned tomatoes or a cream cheese spread.

Ingredients

Mix

  • 1 1/2 cups dried cilantro
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1/2 cup dried onion flakes
  • 1/4 cup dried red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon black pepper

Spicy salsa

  • 2 tablespoons salsa mix
  • 1 (10 ounce) can Mexican-style tomatoes

Salsa spread

  • 2 tablespoons salsa mix
  • 1 cup softened cream cheese

Directions

  • Stir all the mix ingredients together in a small bowl.
  • Spoon it into a pint jar and close it.

Notes

For salsa, stir 2 tablespoons mix into one 10-ounce can Mexican-style tomatoes and serve with chips. For a spread, beat 2 tablespoons mix into 1 cup softened cream cheese and serve with crackers. Both taste best after a few hours in the refrigerator, and both must be kept refrigerated.
