This Bell Pepper Salsa is fresh, crunchy, and tangy and makes for the perfect snack with tortilla chips, or as a topping for tacos, like our carne asada street tacos.
Bell peppers, specifically the red, yellow, and orange varieties, have a tangy and sweet taste and, when diced up very small and paired with other traditional salsa ingredients, make for a delicious combination. This salsa recipe is perfect for snacking with chips or can be added to tacos or taco bowls for a fresh and crunchy bite.
This salsa is sweeter, so if you like a kick of heat, we recommend adding a jalapeno or a Fresno chili pepper.
This recipe calls for staple salsa ingredients, but instead of focusing heavily on the tomatoes, we add fresh bell peppers for a fresh and clean taste.
Here are some of our recommendations/tips with the ingredients for the recipe:

Salsa with fresh tomatoes and bell peppers will last in the fridge for 3-4 days when kept in an airtight sealed container.
After the salsa has marinated together for up to 30 minutes, and it still tastes like something is missing, add a pinch of salt and more lime juice for acidity. The bell peppers also should be diced very small in this recipe too.
