Use up your garden tomatoes in this salsa. Lime juice, jalapeno peppers, and cilantro provide great flavor and spiciness.
 

Ingredients

  • 28 oz. can crushed tomatoes or about 4 cups of fresh tomatoes peeled
  • 1 med. onion, diced fine
  • 1 fresh lime, juiced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 5 jalapenos or serrano peppers, minced and seeded (use more or less as desired; wear rubber gloves to avoid skin irritation)
  • 2-3 oz. fresh cilantro, washed and chopped
  • 2 tsp. salt
  • 1/3 c. water if using canned tomatoes

Method

Place tomates in a large saucepan or kettle. If using fresh tomatoes crush them. Add remaining ingredients and simmer until you reach desired consistency (at least 30 min.). Keep breaking up tomatoes as you cook. Freeze salsa or refrigerate at least 24 hours to allow flavors to blend.

 

Notes: Cilantro will be very strong at first, but will mellow. Recipe can easily be doubled.

 

Number of Servings: 1 1/2 pts.
