Homemade Salsa

Category: Main Dish

 Ingredients List

  • - 6 tomatoes, chopped
  • - 1 can fire roasted tomatoes (optional, for a roasted flavor. I just use it when its on sale!)
  • - 1/3 C. green onion, chopped
  • - 1/4 C. onion, chopped
  • - 1/4 C. fresh cilantro, chopped
  • - 2-3 fresh jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
  • - 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • - 1 heaping tsp. cumin
  • - 1 heaping tsp. black pepper
  • - 2 tsp. salt
  • - juice from one lime

 Directions

Toss all ingredients in food processor or blender and pulse until salsa has reached desired consistency.
If needed, adjust ingredients to your liking.
Eat, enjoy, and find yourself swearing you'll never get the store bought salsa again. :)

Notes:
- This makes a BIG batch of salsa. Feel free to cut in half, though we always seem to need more.
- The spicy level on this one is medium/hot. Cut down or increase jalapenos for what you like.
- I often substitute the jalapenos for 1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper, I always forget to buy jalapenos!
- The nice thing about salsa is that it is so customizable, tweek to your liking!
- Store in an air tight container in the fridge, it should keep fresh at least a week but honestly I haven't had mine in the fridge longer than three days!
