    Gluten-Free Vegan Spicy Balsamic Vinegar Salsa

    This Spicy Balsamic Vinegar Salsa is a great way to use fresh tomatoes from your garden or from the Farmer's Market.

    I didn't think I could ever love homemade salsa as much as I love my classic homemade version or my Raw Tomatillo Salsa, but my new Spicy Balsamic Vinegar Salsa is a pretty good contender.

    The special ingredients that give this salsa an extra kick are the addition of balsamic vinegar and chili powder.

    The brand of balsamic vinegar I use (365 Aged Balsamic Vinegar of Modena) is Non-GMO Project Verified.

    I didn't realize this until recently, but regular white vinegar is commonly made from wine derived from corn, so it's really important that any vinegar products you use are organic or Non-GMO Project Verified.

    This fun summertime salsa is really easy to make with a food processor and you will probably have all the ingredients already on hand and is ready to enjoy in under 5 minutes!

    Expert Tips + Ingredient Substitutions For Spicy Balsamic Vinegar Salsa

    Seasonings.  Feel free to adjust the seasonings (chili powder, Himalayan pink salt, cilantro, onions, garlic, etc) to your preference.

    Roma Tomatoes. I like to use Roma tomatoes to make this salsa, but you can use any type of tomatoes.  The type of tomato you use can change the color of the salsa too.  For example, when I use Roma tomatoes, it seems to have a darker color than when I use tomatoes from the Farmer's Market.spicy-balsamic-vinegar-dressing
