My easy peesy Salsa recipe is......

1 can diced tomatoes with chile's
a little bit of each of the following....
fresh chopped cilantro
sweet onion
ketchup (sumthin bout ketchup just makes it taste better to me) lol
sugar

blend it all up and voila!
My husband loves ketchup

These are the salsa recipes I use

Fresh Mexican Salsa

8 large tomatoes, coarsely diced
1 large onion, peeled and finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
2 T chopped parsley
2 T chopped cilantro
1/4 - 2 tsp. chopped jalepano

Salsa
10-20 Serrano peppers (seeded and chopped)
1/2 tsp. salt
3 medium tomatoes, diced
1/2 tsp. sugar
1 white onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, finely minced
1 large bunch of cilantro
1 - 2 T crushed red pepper
1 14 oz can crushed tomatoes

In a blender combine canned tomatoes and a portion of the cilantro (1/3 to 1/2). Don't use the stems. Pour into a glass bowl and add the remaining chopped cilantro. Mix all other ingredients, except the red pepper. Toast the crushed red pepper in a pan until it barely smokes, then add it as well.
