Fresh Salsa
This is such a simple recipe and so delicious!
Directions:
Dice Tomatoes (diced fine) about 6 tomatoes (just depends on the crowd so you can scale accordingly)
Dice super fine the onion, about ¼ of a medium onion. (I don’t love onion so, I don’t like it to overpower the other flavors but, you can adjust for your own taste)
Dice Chile pepper finely, 1 Chile. (Some Chiles are hot some aren’t). We like it spicy, so we use Serrano peppers. Jalapeños from the store are not very spicy.
Cilantro, 1 bunch. Cut top off usually above where it is tied together. Chop finely.
1 clove of garlic finely minced or ½ teaspoon powder.
Mexican oregano…you can buy this in the Mexican spice section. It’s in a bag and it’s the whole leaf oregano. I just pinch a bunch and rub it between my fingers as I add it. This makes a big difference in the salsa!
Salt and pepper to taste
Mix all together
Bam…. Delicious salsa!
Tips:
If eating with food, you can make it spicier, if eating with chips then make it milder.
If using garden fresh tomatoes (or any juicy tomato), I put a colander inside a mixing bowl and make the salsa in that. It helps so that you don’t have so much liquid in the salsa. I love fresh garden tomatoes and this trick made my life better!
You can add and take away from this salsa to fit your tastes!
