Fresh Garden Salsa (Easy!)
Report
A refreshing salsa that only takes 10 minutes! It features a variety of garden produce instead of canned goods. Great with tortilla chips or spooned on your favorite Mexican-inspired dishes.

Ingredients
- 3-4 beefsteak tomatoes* (about 1.5 lbs.)
- 1 medium green bell pepper
- 1/3 cup yellow onion
- 1-2 cloves garlic
- 1 Jalapeno pepper
- 1/2 cup fresh cilantro
- 2 Tbsp. lime juice (about 1 lime)
- 1 tsp. ground cumin
- 1/4 - 1/2 tsp. salt
Instructions
- Roughly chop tomatoes (excess juice removed if desired), bell pepper, onion, garlic, jalapeno, and cilantro.
- Add all ingredients to a food processor or blender. Pulse to combine until salsa reaches desired consistency. (I leave mine slightly chunky.)
- Taste and adjust flavors if needed. (If the flavors don't quite pop, add a pinch more salt.) Can serve immediately, but tastes best after it chills in the refrigerator for a couple hours or overnight.
Notes
- *Tomatoes: Or use fresh roma tomatoes, tomatoes on the vine, or even cherry or grape tomatoes for a richer, sweeter flavor. If your beefsteak tomatoes are extra juicy, feel free to remove some liquid before adding to the blender so your salsa is not overly watery.
- Flavors: This is a fun recipe to customize, so add more or less of the ingredients you enjoy. Make it spicy with more jalapeno, or add more/less garlic, onion, and cilantro to taste.
- Storing: Store leftovers in a sealed container in the refrigerator for about 3-4 days.
- Yield: Recipe makes about 3.5 cups salsa.
