Classic Salsa













             Maybe the most popular use for cilantro, a salsa screams summer and is so

             simple to make! While I usually advocate using fresh tomatoes for recipes,
                        canned is better for salsa because they are far less watery.


        Ingredients:                                           Instructions:
        1/2 cup white onion, chopped
        1 clove garlic, minced                                 Add the onion, garlic, and jalapeno to a

        1/2 jalapeno, chopped                                  food processor and pulse a few times to
        10 ounce can diced tomatoes, drained                   create a mix of small chunks, then add

        14.5 ounce can fire roasted diced                      the drained and undrained tomatoes and
        tomatoes, undrained                                    the rest of the ingredients. Pulse until
        1/2 cup fresh cilantro leaves                          you get the desired consistency.

        1/4 tsp ground cumin
        1/4 tsp salt                                           Taste test and add salt if needed. Serve with

        pinch of sugar (optional)                              a garnish of cilantro and tortilla chips.



                                                               Enjoy!

                                                               Experiment with jalapeno or other chili
                                                               peppers for your desired level of heat.
