Fresh Salsa

I love some salsa! This recipe is super easy and yummy. Definitely not the most awesome salsa I make, but this goes in a pinch.

Fresh Salsa
makes about 2 cups
5 roma tomatoes
10 sprigs cilantro
1/2 white/yellow onion
1 clove garlic
1 jalapeno
1 tsp kosher salt
juice of 1 lemon
1 tsp lime juice



First you are going to cut 3 tomatoes into quarters then in half like so......


Then you are going to pop them into a blender and just pulse a few times.....



Then you are going to take the 2 other tomatoes and dice them up.....


Throw all of that into a bowl. Then you are going to dice 1/2 of an onion.....



Throw that into the bowl with the tomatoes. Then you are going to take the jalapeno and cut the top off, then cut it in half. Remove the seeds. I take a spoon and scoop them out....


Go ahead and dice the jalapeno into small pieces....


Pop that into the bowl with the tomatoes and onions. Now you are going to mince 1 clove of garlic.....


Into the bowl with that. Now you are going to take the leaves off of the 10 sprigs of cilantro. Mince that up really fine.....



Place that into the bowl too. Now you are going to juice 1 lemon right into the mix....


Add 1 tsp of kosher salt.....



Now you are going to add 1 tsp of lime juice.....



Go ahead and mix all that yummy-ness up....eat in stuff or however you want. You might want to chill it for about a half hour before hand to allow the flavors to get it on......



There ya go!
