2 Minute Straight-Out-of-the-Pantry Salsa
Alright friends, here’s another one of those SUPER simple, easy-to-throw-together-in-a-hurry dip recipes I’m excited to share with you!
This 2 Minute Straight-Out-of-the-Pantry Salsa is extra special, simply because I’ve been on a mission to come up with a few snack recipes that you can throw together from things you can keep on hand. This salsa is something you can create from ingredients stored in your pantry – just grab the ingredients next time you’re grocery shopping, and then you can throw a salsa together any time the need for it arrives!
Which, will probably be tomorrow, because the need for salsa pretty much arrives every day. Right?
Here’s the first set of pantry ingredients:
Add some seasonings and spices:
The most work you’ll do to create this salsa is draining the cans of corn and beans.
I know, super heavy lifting. I hope we can handle it.
While you can certainly add fresh ingredients to this salsa – fresh jalapeno, tomatoes, cilantro, lime juice – you don’t NEED to. My mission was to have a little bank of recipes that we can turn to when a) we’re in a hurry, and b) we don’t have the ability to go to the store to make a snack/appetizer for when company’s coming, especially on short notice.
Don’t let food prep get in the way of getting together with folks! Let’s make it easy!
I’m certain you’ll bring smiles to any gathering you attend or anything you host at your house with this easy salsa!

LOVE that i can buy the ingredients for this today and they can sit in my pantry for when i need them. it makes having people over so much easier when i have what i need on hand. i am so much more likely to say YES to a get-together when i know i have something i can throw together in a hurry! then i can spend my grocery shopping time tidying my house!
Erin, ME TOO. It’s so helpful in this stage of life, especially when we have little runs running around, to have some things on hand that we can throw together for an occasion. Those grocery trips are harder to do if they’re not planned out ahead of time now! 🙂
