Notes: This is a very versatile salsa because you can use it like a regular salsa and spoon it on top of any kind of dish like tacos, quesadillas, and even scoop it up with chips. It can also act as a relish for grilled meat, chicken or seafood and hamburgers.
Make this in large quantities a day ahead of time and keep in the refrigerator and use as needed. Remember, the on show Chili's need a lot of time to rehydrate and soak up all the flavors. I don't recommend making this salsa less than eight hours before you're ready to use it.
