There are only 5-Ingredients in this slow cooker steak fajitas recipe. This easy yet delicious whole30 and paleo dish is perfect any day of the week.
Yesterday was National Margarita Day and I completely missed out. I will not miss out on Taco Tuesday! Fajitas count right? I’m all about simplicity these days so there are only 5 ingredients in this recipe and they are: beef, bell pepper, onion, salsa, and fajita seasoning.
MY LATEST VIDEOS
BEEF – I used a 2 pound grass-fed, angus beef boneless chuck roast sliced up. You can use your preferred cut of beef whether it be roast, tri-tip, flank steak, etc.
Salsa – My slow cooker salsa is a great option! Otherwise use 15 ounces of your favorite brand or even diced tomatoes. You can even use salsa verde.
Seasoning – I won’t preach because I use packet on occasion, but in general I heavily encourage you to ditch the store-bought seasoning packets. Below is my go-to homemade fajita seasoning. You probably have all these spices in your pantry already. This makes about 2 1/2 tbsp which is equivalent to 1 packet of store-bought. I make a big batch and keep a mason jar full of it in my cupboard.
Normally when I make this slow cooker steak fajitas recipe I only use 1 bell pepper. This time though, I wanted more veggies so I used two – a combo of red and green. I like to give this a good stir before putting the lid on so the salsa and seasonings are distributed evenly.
Set it and forget it. You can substitute chicken or pork instead of beef if you like. Heck I have even made these fajitas using a large turkey breast. The concept stays the same, just swap out the protein.
For my whole30/paleo folks, if you choose to NOT make your own salsa and use store-bought instead, look for one that uses all-natural ingredients and definitely don’t use one with added sugar.

PIN FOR LATER
Hello, Thanks for posting this recipe. I am thinking about trying this recipe this weekend. I absolutely love steak fajitas but have never made them. How thick do you slice the rump roast? Thanks!
Would sirloin steak work?
I have not tried sirloin but I think it would work. Since sirloin is a thinner cut, it might cook fast so watch it after the 1st couple hours the first time you make this.
I used the sirloin for my fajitas. I doubled the recipe for a big birthday party. I cooked them for a little less time than required. I used a slotted spoon when serving. They were a hit – turned out great! Many compliments! Leftovers were amazing, also! I made your fajita seasoning, and loved it. I did add a little more to the recipe than called for because we love the flavors. Thank you so much for a great recipe!
This is SO delicious. I made it a couple of weeks ago and my husband and I both LOVED it. I had mine over Mexican rice and he had his in corn tortillas. Made great leftovers, too. I halved it and it turned out great. The extra juices from cooking were great to spoon over rice. I’m making it again tomorrow for Sunday dinner. Thanks so much for a great recipe!
Mine is very runny, is it supposed to be runny? Followed to a T.
This is one of our favorite recipes. We actually think it tastes a lot like the ropa vieja from one of our favorite Cuban restaurants so instead of serving it in a tortilla, we put it over rice or cauliflower rice and make Cuban black beans that we mix into it. I have one question though. I want to make it for my father who does not like spices. What would you recommend cutting in order to make it a little less spicy but yet still maintain the flavor?
Can I slow cook this without the salsa and if so, would the cooking time change? I prefer salsa cold and added to the meat and vegetables when building the wrap (your salsa recipe is amazing!)
Sure. But I would substitute something like diced tomatoes or even 1 cup of broth so the meat doesn’t dry out. Cook time would remain the same. Enjoy!
Hello, is the picture of the fajita spice exactly as your recipe on the blog? I see large bits if yellow and green in it. Looked so appetizing I want to make sure it comes out the same, but nothing in ingredient list seemed to be a spice with large colorful bits.
Hi!!! Is it possible to cut this recipe if you only have 1/2 pound of meat to include? Would cook time change? TIA!!
Absolutely. Yes, I’d reduce the cook time by an hour or so. Enjoy!
How much time would this recipe need in an instant pot instead of slow cooker?? Thanks!
Can you do this with shrimp? Any idea what the cooking time would be? Or maybe just omit the shrimp until the very end?
Yup! I made it once with shrimp. You nailed it, the shrimp is added the last 20 minutes of cook time.
Hello! Want to try this recipe with a big piece of flank steak that I have. Wondering if it would seal in more flavour and keep the meat more moist if I slow cook it as a whole and slice it after? Or do you not think that will work?
Thanks in advance!
That will absolutely work! Enjoy xo
Is this better to cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours? Does it make the outcome different ?
No difference, just whatever works best for your schedule. Depending on how hot your slow cooker heats, you might want to cook it for less time. Mine usually cooks in about 3 hours on high.
Should you very the cooking time for chicken?
If you’re using chicken thighs then no but if using breasts then yes cook HIGH 2-3 or LOW 4-6. Enjoy!
How does it end up watery ? Do you add a little water to the mix ? Or is it just the juices that come out of the steak etc ?
If doubling this recipe, how long should slow cooker times change?
I would actually keep the cook time the same. MAYBE add an extra 30 minutes on at the end if the meat isn’t tender enough to your liking. Enjoy!
I followed the recipe to a tee and we loved it! We do mass crockpot meal preps so we bagged and froze most of it, minus the salsa. We thawed the bag overnight in the fridge then dumped in the crock, added the salsa, and cooked 8 hrs on low. We have 3 more for the month and can’t wait til the next time it comes around!
Fabulous idea
Did you freeze it once it was made? Or freeze the vegetables cut up, then freeze the meet raw? Thanks!
I froze it raw. You pretty much make the meal as instructed, then bag & freeze it. A day before you’re ready to eat, pop the bag in the refrigerator. It should thaw by the next day. Then you cook as instructed. Enjoy!
What kind of steak works the best?
I personally use rump roast that I cut into strips but really any cut will do since it’s being slow cooked. Sirloin, flank, skirt steak and tri-tip are good too. Enjoy!
Hi! Can I put the steak in frozen or does it needs to be thawed? Thank you
It should be thawed first. Enjoy!
I bought a frozen bag of mixed red and green bell peppers and onion, and the pre-sliced beef and this worked well. Since there was going to be extra liquid from the frozen veggies, I used 2 packs of taco seasoning instead of the salsa and it was yummy!
How long did you cook it?
Hey Shannon, so excited to try this! I’m using chicken … is it possible to use the ice-glazed frozen chicken breasts, or do I need to thaw and cook the chicken before tossing it into the crockpot?
Hello! I would recommend thawing them first. Frozen chicken I think would make the dish too watery when it cooks.
Hi —
Would you recommend this for a weekly meal prep? If so, what is the best way to reheat? Thanks 🙂
I just reheat in the micro for about 2.5 minutes in the Tupperware and its good to go!
This is a fantastic meal prep recipe! Microwave in glassware is the best way to go. Enjoy!
Absolutely delicious. Loved your recipe for the fajita seasoning as well. Will be a favorite family recipe to enjoy year after year. Thanks so much for sharing.
You’re welcome! I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed the recipe.
I plan on making this for my dinner club of 10 people. Is this recipe ok to double?
Absolutely, double away! Enjoy xo
This was absolutely delicious! I followed the recipe to a T minus red pepper flakes. I am attempting the Whole 30 diet, and this is the first dinner recipe I’ve made since I started it (today Lol). That seasoning mix is perfect and this was great just on a plate with guacamole on top. Luckily it’s versatile, so my husband was also very pleased, as he ate his typical fajita style with all of the toppings. So easy, so delicious and can change to go with almost any diet. Thank you for the fantastic recipe!
Yay!! I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe! It’s one of my personal favorites:-) Good luck on your whole30 journey. I’m going start another round but probably not until January 2018. I have tons of whole30 slow cooker recipes on my site. Just search under the category.
This turned out great! It’s a simple recipe with a lot of flavor! We really enjoyed it!
Do you brown the meat prior to putting it in the crockpot?
Nope it goes in raw👍
Do you add any water? Or any other liquid?
Nope, just the 64 ounces of broth. Enjoy!
I don’t see broth in recipe what is it suppose be, I’m cooking this tonigh.
OMG my mistake. I thought you were asking about my 5-Ingredient SHRIMP Fajita soup recipe that I just posted. There’s no broth in this steak fajitas recipe, just the salsa. If I just ruined your dish with my own miscommunication please email me at: fitslowcookerqueen@gmail.com and we’ll work something out. Totally my fault for misreading.
All I can say is omg!! These were SO good, I made these for the guys in my house and had planned on eating something else because I don’t like steak…..well, I ate 3 fajitas to myself, they were delicious!! Thank you for the recipe.
Ooh a steak convert! Even if it’s just for the this recipe:-) You’re welcome. I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed the recipe. Thank you for feedback xo.
Yay, so excited to try these! I have skirt steak will that work? Also, what is your fajita seasoning recipe I want the full experience please!
Yes, skirt steak will work! The fajita recipe is included in the blog post:-)
does this freeze well if prepared ahead of time and frozen raw?
Absolutely this is a great freezer meal!
Hello 🙂 How can I replace the salsa? I can nor eat any kind of sauce. Beef broth?
Thanks!
You can make it with out the sauce. It’s still super delicious! Just leave the sauce out.
Apologies for the delay but Socorro is correct you don’t need the sauce. A cup of beef broth would be a great addition!
Made this last night! It was absolutely amazing!! Thanks for sharing!
You’re welcome! I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe!
Made this the other night and it was SO good! Omg the leftover was even better ..everybody loved it
Yay!! I’m so glad to hear that! Thank you so much for the positive feedback!
Made this with chicken. YUM! Everyone,the one year old to the grandparents loved it. I browned and precooked the chicken about 20 minutes because I needed to hurry things along. Then I dumped all the ingredients into the crock pot leaving the juice that cooked out of the chicken behind. I loved the fajita flavoring mix and will be using it often in all my Tex Mex dishes.
THAnK YOU so much for the positive feedback. I recently updated the recipe to include chicken after reading your comment. I use the seasoning all the time too – taco, fajitas, heck even on veggies haha!
This sounds delish and perfect for not heating the house up on a warm summer evening. Although I will be making it with the beef, I was wondering if replacing with the same amount of chicken changes the cooking time?
Yes for chicken definitely lower the cook time to high 2-3 or low 4-6. Enjoy!
Hey! What is your garnish there? Cilantro?
Hello! Correct, that is fresh cilantro.
It is currently cooking right now (have about 4 more hours for it to be on low for 8 hours) but the meat is so flavorful! How do you think I should turn the delicious juices into a sauce to top off the fajitas? I would like it to be a little thicker. Thank you!! 🙂
I hope you enjoyed it!! Let me know how it turned out.
What’s cooking in my Slow Cooker today! When done I’m taking the juices and veggies in the blender making a sauce out if it! Hope it comes out delicious!! Thank you for the recipe!
Brilliant idea to make sauce of the juices and veggies!! I just made note of that for next time! Enjoy xo
I’m so thankful for this easy and delicious recipe! My picky eater loves it, it’s a keeper for sure!
Thank you so much for the kind words. I’m glad you enjoyed the recipe!
Shared with my readers and pointed them here for directions. Thanks for the recipe! http://collectorofrecipes.com/?p=1227
Thanks for pointing back to my site, much appreciated!
This was amazing! My husband said it was better than anything he’s had at a mexican restaraunt
. Love your homemade seasoning blend! Thank -you!!!!!
Thank you so much for the feedback! I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe!
I fixed this tonight but it didn’t turn out like fajitas instead it was more like Carne Guisada, which my guys like but I wanted fajitas. I did everything like you did except I used a 14 oz can diced tomatoes instead of the salsa and I used 2 lbs of thin sliced beef tenderizer (pkg said Maltese ). I cooked on low for 7 hours. I don’t know what happened. I asked husband if he wanted me to keep it or throw it out. He said keep it he liked it. He put it over Spanish rice with cheese. I told him well I guess I know how to make Carne Guisada. Lol
Don’t get me wrong it had a good taste but had my taste buds ready for fajitas.
Still looking for a good fajita recipe.
Hi Linda,
Yikes. While carne guisada is good, I understand it’s not what you were looking for. Did it by chance it on warm? Even if not, since every slow cooker heats differently, you’re just might heat on the high side. I’m asking because this has actually happened to me and it was a result of me accidentally overcooking it. Even if you followed the setting exactly. If you chose to make the recipe again (I hope you do), I would suggest reducing the cook time. I’m sorry the recipe did not work out for you. xShannon
This dish was a hit with my family! Of course they ate the all of the meat leaving lots of delicious juices behind. No worries! I used it to make the most amazing chili cheese fries!!
Ooohh….chili fries! I didn’t think of that. I’m adding that to the list of things to make, thank you!
I tried this we loved it I used 2 peppers eachred green yellow and 3 onions 2 yellow and 1 red we just like a lot of peppers and onions thank you so much Fit Slow Cooker queen keep the recipes coming I love to cook and I like trying different things
I understand, I love bell peppers too! I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed the recipe. I’ll definitely keep the recipes coming if you continue to make them:-)
I made this recipe today for dinner but the meat turned out to tasting more like a stew meat . What did I do wrong ?
Thanks .

Have you tried you’re homemade seasoning on any other type of meats?
Yes! I use it on chicken, pork, beef and seafood! Enjoy:-)
Can I freeze the ingredients and then when ready to cook it throw it all in the slow cooker?
Absolutely! This is a great freezer meal!
Can I use ground turkey.
Sure! I suggest you brown the turkey first before adding to the slow cooker. This will help minimize grease.
Does the meat go in on top of all the veggies n stuff
Yes but I like to give everything a good mix before I set it to cook. xShannon
Yes but I like to give it a good stir before I set it to cook to mix it all together.????
What can I use in place of salsa? Thanks
Diced tomatoes (canned or fresh) is a great substitute! xShannon
Thank you ma’am
So if we don’t use your seasoning we should just use taco seasoning?
Correct, 1 packet of taco seasoning. Enjoy the recipe!
I doubled this recipe and we ate off of it for a LONG time. We made fajitas one night, my husband ate it another night with a side of mashed potatoes and asparagus, another night he ate it over rice. I took it to work several days and made fajita steak salad, with spinach and avocados. DELISH ! thanks for this recipe.
OMG that sounds delicious. I’m definitely trying it with mashed potatoes next time! I’m so glad to hear you enjoyed the recipe. Thanks so much for the feedback! xShannon
Making this now for work luncheon tomorrow.. My house smells amazing !! So easy to make , and thus single girl can not cook …thanks for the 5 easy recipe
You’re welcome. I hope it came out to your liking and you enjoyed the meal! xShannon
can i use a packet of taco seasoning
Absolutely!
If I skip the salsa but use all other ingridents, should I add water?
I would substitute 15 ounces of diced tomatoes OR 1/3 cup low sodium beef broth OR 1/3 cup water. Let me know what you do & how it turns out! xShannon
Just have all but the chili powder in my slow cooker at 11:50 pm. Will leave it on low until morning…and check it then. Need to add the chili in the morning as we need to go get some! Thought I had but hubby has searched and searched and can’t find it. So will update this once we have it finished tomorrow and give it a taste. Love the fact it is only 5 ingredients (well the fajita spices need to be done ahead to add and I am afraid we will be adding the extra tbsp of the chili powder so it is a tad more than you call for but I BET it is forgiving this recipe) and in a slow cooker so I only had to do the slicing and the mixing – the pot does the rest! Yup, my kind of recipe and I have pinned it. If we like it I will be giving it my YEAH! on my Pinterest page where I have the recipes I have tried and YEAH and NAY them! 🙂
How did it turn out??
Well! It was ABSOLUTELY a rave! The guys in the family liked it SOOOOO much that they ASKED if we could have the leftovers for the next day supper meal! I loved it also. It was easy to make. I LOVE that it only uses 5 ingredients. I found that it needed to be allowed to “cook down” in order to remove some of the moisture. That might have been because I used two LARGE peppers, a LARGE onion, and because I did not measure exactly the amount of salsa and I used a combo of two of them. One was a homemade one I obtained from our local online market, and because it was not quite as much as indicated I added a Tostitos medium salsa to top it up. As well, I used stew beef that I cut into short, short strips. Not sure why but the end result had a LOT of liquid in it. Maybe I needed more meat since I think I was short the 2 lbs by a wee bit. But anyway, we used a slotted serving utensil to take the mix out of the dish I had put it in and that worked mostly. The main point is that I used your Fajita spice mix and it worked perfectly. The mix given was JUST enough for this pot of slow cooker fajita. So I know I can make this ahead and bottle it for us as it is great! Very very tasty. At any rate, if there was a star rating of 5 I would be giving this recipe a 5+ cause it is just too awesome to pass up! Yup we WILL be doing this again. And oh yes, making this motivated me to also make our own guacamole which my brother insisted I need to have available ALL the time in future and refried black beans to add to our supper. Both the guacamole and the refried beans were found on Pinterest and both were a big hit with my husband and I, although the beans seemed as if they were avoided by my brother. Hmmm… but I liked both of those too. When two guys rave about something you KNOW it has to be good! Yup! THANK YOU!
This comment made my day. Kindly check your email:-)
I made this for dinner tonight it was superb. I will be making it again soon. I think I will add some black beans and serve it more like a soup with tortilla chips
I’m very happy to hear you enjoyed the recipe! Adding black beans is a great idea, I think I’ll that next time. xShannon
If I want to end up with med rare flank steak strips using a crockpot what do you recommend?
I would sautee the veggies until they were soft before adding them to the slow cooker. Then add the rest of the ingredients, stir, and cook on HIGH for 30 min or so or LOW about a hour. This is just my best educated guess, I haven’t actually tried this:-) Let me know how it turns out! xShannon
I tried this today and it was so easy and tasty! looking forward to reading your simple recipes!
Nice! I’m so glad you liked the recipe! I hope you try some more and enjoy those as well. Cheers!
What kind of beef should you use? Also, I am planning on doubling this recipe for a party of 10-12… Should I make any modifications! Thanks!
I actually used a roast that I cut into strips. Roast, skirt steak, fajita strips…pretty much any cut of meat will work. This is a great recipe to double. No modifications needed, just double. Enjoy!!
Thank you for sharing!! My husband recently had to get all his teeth out and we cannot yet afford dentures that fit properly and he has always been a big meat eater so I feel blessed to find your easy meal ideas. Thanks again ????❤
You’re welcome! I stay tuned I have some good soup recipes coming up that won’t require much chewing. Best wishes to your hubby with his teeth situation! xShannon
Would cooked rice do instead of tortillas ?
Absolutely! Rice, heck you can even serve it over some lettuce or with some mashed potatoes. Enjoy!
Can I prepare the night before and put crock in the fridge?
Absolutely! This also makes a good freezer meal ????
Is this one fajita per serving?
Sorry found what I needed to know. Thanks again. I’m going to try this with my family. 🙂
No problem! Great, I hope you enjoy the recipe. ????
yum!
Thank you!
I’m making this tonight!! My hubby loves all things steak & anything eaten in a taco shell.????
I make my own fajita seasoning also. Store package sodium content is extremely high. I’ll post a comment later on how it turned out. Thanks!
I hope you enjoyed the recipe!
Question: What’s the calorie count in this dish? It’s delicious!!
Approximately 300 calories per serving but it all depends on what ingredients you add to it. Enjoy!
Currently making this now…smells soo good!! Super easy too…it was nice cause I really didn’t feel like cooking haha
I hope you enjoyed it!!
It seems like I should brown the meat first. Is this not the case?
Nope, not needed. You can if you want to but it’s definitely not necessary. Personally I never brown the meat with this recipe. Enjoy!
Silly question but when you stir it all up, is it important that the salsa stay on the bottom? Or do you stir it around as well?
No question is silly! Stir all around:-) I like the salsa to get mixed in real good with the rest of the ingredients for better flavor.
I went to Pinterest looking for crockpot fajita recipes and yours was the first one I saw – so glad I found it. I will be making this very soon!
Hi Faye – I’m so glad you found me:-) I hope you enjoy the recipe. Let me know if you have any questions. xShannon
Can you use beef chuck tender steak for this? 🙂
Absolutely! Enjoy the recipe.
What kind of salsa?
Any brand you like! Tomato-based salsa works best.
I made this a few days ago and it was wonderful! I had lots of juices left over so I decided to make soup out of the leftovers! I cut up the meat and peppers that were left, added some beef stock, cooked brown rice and some corn. Topped it with some sour cream and shredded cheese. It was divine! Thanks for a great recipe!
That sounds fantastic! I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe. I think I’m going to try it your way next time! ????
This was by far the best slow cooker meal I have ever made!! Thank you for sharing this recipe!
Wow thank you so much for the great feedback. I hope you try some more of my recipes!
My daughter made this for dinner, it is delicious
It’s was so good I could eat just the veggies in tortillas. She also made a chimichurri sauce that complimented it very well.
I’m so glad you enjoyed the recipe! Chimichurri sauce sounds great, I’ll have to try that next time!
Made it with chicken tonight. It was awesome! Any clue on calories per serving?
Hi Stacy,
I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the recipe! The calorie content will depend on the salsa you use and how you serve this (tortilla, over rice, etc) but in general, this a low calorie with approximately 350 calories per serving.
do you think this can be frozen ahead of time
It sure can! This is a great freezer meal. ????
Looks, yummy! Just wondering do the peppers stay firm or do they get soft? I don’t want mushy peppers. Thanks, April
Thank you! The peppers get soft. If you like yours ‘al dente’ then I suggest you add them to the slow cooker the last couple hours of cook time versus at the beginning. I hope you enjoy the recipe!
do i buy steak and make into strips or can i buy steak strips? ive never paid attention so i dont know whats out there lol
Either. If you can’t find already cut strips at your local grocery then you will need to buy the beef and cut it yourself. I hope you enjoy the recipe. Good luck!
Looks good will try it thank you so much
I’ve made this twice already and it is so easy and so delicious. You can make it a little different every time by switching out different types of salsa or tomatoes [like jalapenos, chipotle, green chilies, etc.] This is going into my favorites folder. Also, highly recommended for mommies with little ones because it takes no time to prepare. THANKS a million for posting! 🙂
You’re very welcome! I’m so glad to hear you enjoy the recipe. I LOVE your ideas…I think I’ll add in jalapenos next time:-) Thank you so much for sharing. I hope you try some more recipes from my blog.
Would it be fine to cook steak and chicken together?
Sure. The taste will be a little different but you can definitely do it. I hope you enjoy the recipe!
I made this tonight and we loved it. My husband usually isn’t a fan of crock pot meals, but he loved this. Said it’s the best crock pot meal we’ve ever had and to save this recipe. Thank you!
You’re very welcome and thank YOU for the wonderful feedback. I’m so glad to hear your husband was converted to a crock pot fan even if only for this recipe!
Can I substitute the beef for chicken?
Absolutely you can use chicken! I hope you enjoy the recipe.
Can you leave out the salsa?
Yes but you’ll need some sort of ‘juicy’ substitute. Do you like diced tomatoes? If so, sub 15 ounces diced tomatoes. If not add 1/3 cup low-sodium beef broth.
I usually use taco sauce instead of salsa because I don’t like the chunks of tomatoes.
Perfect!
If i need to 1/2 the recipe because I am cooking for just 2 people – is the cook time the same?
You’ll need to reduce the cook time by an hour or so. I hope you enjoy the recipe!
I’m really sorry if this has already been asked, but I want to make this tonight. Can my meat be frozen? Would anything need to be changed?
Yup, you can use frozen meat. You’ll need to add an extra 30 min of cooking time but that’s it. Good luck, I hope you enjoy the recipe!
salutations friend i was having a serious debate with my father in law’s 3rd wife and we were wondering how to properly pronounce fajita. she claims that the 2nd a is silent but my english teacher says that the hard J sound makes the F sound like a PH. thanks so much!
‘Fa – HE – tah’ is the pronunciation:-)
The ingredients and amount you put for the fajita mix is equal to a packet correct?
Correct:-)
I just realized that I put the beef in as a whole and not sliced it up before hand. Will this still be okay and just shred the meat when it’s done? :-/
That’s totally fine! Yup, you can just shred it when it’s done. It should be falling apart. Enjoy:-)
Hi specifically what beef did you use?
I used rump roast that I sliced into strips:-)
Would skirt steak work?
Absolutely!
Can the salsa be the one that comes in the jar, like the Pace brand?
Absolutely! I used jar salsa when I made it:-)
Hi! I want to try this recipe next week (it looks delicious) but I need help about the salsa. Which one it is? In my country we have salsa de tomate (ketchup), salsa inglesa (worcestershire),salsa china (soy) salsa verde o de tomatillo (I have not idea how to translate it), barbacoa (BBQ), …. so, could you help me clarifying the ingredient? Thank you.
The salsa you could use would be verde or tomatillo. Whatever you prefer 🙂
You will want to use the kind of salsa that you dip tortilla chips into. The company Pace makes several varieties. Es la salsa que contiene tomate, cebolla, pimiento, y cosas así. Es un poco “chunky.” Ojalá que le ayude.
Go with the salsa Verde/tomatillo!
I like your style Michelle!
Hi Rebeca,
Salsa verde o de tomatillo or salsa de tomate. Personally I like salsa de tomate; I used a pico de gallo salsa this particular time. But like I said, you can use either. Let me know how it turns out!
