Salsa Fresca

Forget store-bought salsa, you can make a much better homemade version with a few simple ingredients.

This uncomplicated recipe is made with chopped tomatoes, onions, chili peppers, cilantro, and lime. A bright and tangy medley which can be enjoyed as a dip with chips, or great on top of tacos, nachos, burritos, grilled chicken or roasted meats.

Note — juicy tomatoes will result in a more watery salsa than plump Roma tomatoes. Adjust tomato type to your preference. You can also modify heat-levels by the amount of chilies used and omit cilantro if not a fan. 

Ingredients:
4-5 medium tomatoes, chopped
1 small white onion, chopped
3 tablespoons lime juice, adjust to taste
A handful of fresh cilantro, chopped
1 small jalapeno or serrano chili, seeds removed and finely chopped
Salt to taste

Directions:
Place chopped onions in a bowl and cover with lime juice and season with a pinch of salt. Let it sit allowing the onions to marinate and soften, set aside.
Chop the tomato, jalapeno and cilantro, then mix with the onion and lime juice. Season with salt and additional lime if desired.
Let the salsa stand at room temperature for approximately 30 minutes for flavors to meld and vegetables to soften.
