Tostitos Chunky Salsa Medium

Tostitos Chunky Salsa Medium represents the perfect middle ground in the Tostitos range: enough heat to satisfy thrill-seekers, but easy enough not to overwhelm sensitive palates. It's the most popular version in the United States, chosen by those who find the Mild too tame and the Hot too intense.

The recipe uses the same high-quality ingredients as the rest of the range: tomato puree , juicy diced tomatoes, jalapeño peppers, crunchy onions, vinegar, salt, and garlic powder. The difference lies in the balance: the jalapeños are more prominent, providing that characteristic heat that builds gradually in the mouth and then fades pleasantly. Only 10 calories per serving and certified vegan.

The generous chunky texture makes this salsa much more than just a dip. The pieces of vegetables create a rustic and authentic consistency reminiscent of fresh salsas from Tex-Mex restaurants. It clings perfectly to Tostitos tortilla chips and adds substance to every bite.

Tip : Use this Medium salsa as a base for a quick enchilada sauce by mixing it with a little chicken broth and cumin. It's also wonderful poured over fried eggs for a Mexican-style breakfast (huevos rancheros). Refrigerate after opening.

The Tostitos brand has revolutionized the American tortilla chip market since 1978. Developed by Jack Liczkowski at Frito-Lay, it offered a more authentic alternative to Doritos, with round white corn chips prepared using a traditional nixtamalization process. The name derives from the Spanish "tostadito" (little toasted thing), evoking Mexican totopos. The iconic logo hides a friendly message: two people (the "T") sharing chips and salsa (the triangle and the red dot). The full line includes Mild , Medium, and Hot versions, allowing everyone to find their ideal level of spiciness. Available in 15.5 oz and 24 oz sizes.
