quick and easy rotel salsa

my dad loves salsa - he puts it on everything.  and the hotter the better.  but he really struggles with finding a salsa that he loves.

so he recently created his own (now you know where i get it).  we loved it at our house too.  and it takes about 3 minutes to make.  doesn't get better than that!

2 cans mild rotel tomatoes (with green chilis)
1 can hot rotel tomatoes (with habaneros) (this is the ratio we like - you could use any ratio of rotel tomatoes)
diced white onion, to taste
a clove of garlic, minced
chopped cilantro, to taste

1.  combine all ingredients in a large tupperware.  adjust onion and cilantro until the flavor is what you want.  store in the fridge. 

healthy cooking on a budget

disclaimer: i don't claim to be an expert on cooking, weight loss or even healthy eating, but i do love to cook, find healthy, taste bud-friendly tricks and most of all, i love to eat!

qualifications: what qualifies me to blog on cooking healthy on a small budget? well, as my husband is still a student, my budget is not what you'd call large. and as for the healthy part, when i was 10 i was diagnosed with pancreatitus - a disease that doesn't effect me much anymore unless i eat food that is too greasy or has too much fat (in which case, well, let's just say i get really sick). this had steered my experience and limited cooking expertise in a health-conscious direction.
