When you’re looking for a new recipe to spice up your dinner menu, try this Jalapeno Corn Salsa. It’s the perfect summer dish and is sure to please everyone at the table!

Salsa is a Latin American dish that is traditionally served with tortilla chips, but can also be used as a topping for tacos or burritos. This Jalapeno Corn Salsa recipe combines the spicy heat of jalapeño peppers and the sweetness of corn to create an addictively delicious salsa that will have you craving more!

Do you love spicy food?

My jalapeno corn salsa is the perfect blend of sweet and spicy. It’s made with fresh ingredients that will leave your taste buds tingling for more! You can use it as a dip or add it to any meal for an extra kick. If you want it to be spicier feel free to add in some habanero pepper to spice it up!

I grew up in Saskatchewan and my hubby in North Dakota.. not a lot of spicy foods to be found there! But after moving to Arizona we have fallen in love with the flavors of the South West and Mexico! I am not sure we are ghost pepper ready but definitely can tolerate a little heat now. Hehe!

What else can I eat this Jalapeno Corn Salsa With?

It’s a sweet and spicy salsa that goes great with tacos, burritos, or as a dip for chips. If you’re looking to try something new it also makes an excellent topping on grilled chicken or fish. It is also delicious on top of nachos, burritos, and eggs.

This homemade salsa is so easy to make you’ll never buy another jar again! Just throw everything into a bowl and mix it together and voila you are done! Super easy! I like to let mine sit in the fridge for a few hours before we eat it to let the flavors marry! You can even add extra veggies like bell peppers if you want to get fancy about it!

I am a big fan of smoked tomatillo salsa. It is a beautiful green color and you can control how sweet you make it, which I love. Sometimes at restaurants, the tomatillo salsa is too sweet for me.
