Equipment

  • Food processor
  • Serving Bowls

Ingredients

  • ½ Onion White or red onion
  • 2 Garlic cloves
  • 1 Jalapeno Seeds and veins removed
  • 3 cups Cherry tomatoes Washed
  • ¼ cup Cilantro
  • 1 Lime Juiced
  • Salt and Pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Into a food processor, add the onion, jalapeno, cherry tomatoes, and cilantro. Pulse for 30 seconds or until the salsa looks chunky.
  • Add the lime juice and salt. Mix one more time and serve. If there is excess liquid, drain out any excess until it is thick.

Notes

  • If you don't have cherry tomatoes, you can use large plum tomatoes or beefsteak tomatoes.  You'll want about 4 cups of tomatoes. 
  • To make this salsa more spicy, keep the seeds and veins of the jalapenos in the salsa.  You can also add an extra jalapeno for even more kick.
  • No food processor? No problem! Simply chop all the ingredients instead of mixing them together in a food processor.
