Description
A fresh and zesty salsa made with ripe tomatoes, onions, and jalapeno.
Ingredients
Scale
- 28 oz can whole peeled tomatoes (undrained)
- 1/2 red or white onion (roughly chopped)
- 1 handful cilantro leaves (roughly chopped)
- 2 cloves garlic (roughly chopped)
- 1 jalapeno (seeded and roughly chopped (leave in seeds for a spicier salsa))
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 lime
- 1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
Instructions
- Add ingredients — whole tomatoes through salt — to a food processor.
- Add the juice of half a lime, plus the sugar if your canned tomatoes do not contain sugar. If sugar is listed as an ingredient on your canned tomatoes, omit the sugar.
- Pulse ingredients until desired consistency is reached then taste and add more lime juice and/or salt if necessary.

Notes
- For a milder salsa, remove the seeds from the jalapeno.
- Letting the salsa sit overnight allows the flavors to meld together.
