Fresh Tomato Salsa

Fresh Tomato Salsa

4-5 large chopped tomatoes (or 6-8 smaller ones)
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup onion, diced
  • 1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro (or if you don't have fresh you can use about 2 Tbsp dried)
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 4 teaspoons chopped fresh jalapeno pepper (include seeds if you want it hotter- add less if you don't like heat)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • Mix all ingredients together and serve. Keep leftovers in fridge. This tastes amazing after about 24 hours in the fridge . . . the flavors all mix together and it is delicious!
    If you like your's chunky then leave it the way it like the recipe calls for.  I like mine "not so chunky" so I give it a quick spin in the food processor or blender.
