What Is a Substitute for Rotel

The main ingredient in Ro_tel is tomatoes in tomato juice. When substituting for the tomato flavor in a recipe that calls for Ro_tel, use canned diced tomatoes.

Can I substitute Rotel for salsa?

There is no substitute for Rotel – other brands don’t make it taste like salsa, rather they only taste like diced tomatoes. If you find the salsa too hot for your taste, do not use the Rotel Extra Hot – which is, by the way, pretty darn hot!

Is Rotel the same as diced tomatoes with green chilies?

Ro-Tel Mild Diced Tomatoes and Green Chilies is the one-of-a-kind blend of vine-ripened tomatoes, zesty green chilies, and spices that people love, but with a little less heat. Add Ro-Tel Mild Diced Tomatoes and Green Chilies to queso, tortilla soups, or any of your favorite recipes, and spice things up.
