Salsa has a lot of water from tomatoes, onions, and peppers. When frozen and thawed, those ingredients often soften and release extra liquid.
Freeze salsa in small airtight containers so you can thaw only what you need. Leave a little room at the top because liquid expands.
After thawing, stir it well and drain extra liquid if needed. Thawed salsa works well in chili, soups, casseroles, slow cooker meals, and cooked sauces.
Salsa can be frozen, but it is best when you plan to cook with it afterward.
