Ingredients

Servings
  • 3-4 beefsteak tomato about 1.5 lbs
  • 1 green bell pepper medium
  • 1/3 cup yellow onion
  • 1-2 cloves garlic
  • 1 jalapeno pepper
  • 1/2 cup cilantro fresh
  • 2 Tbsp. lime juice (about 1 lime)
  • 1 tsp. cumin ground
  • 1/4 - 1/2 tsp. salt

Instructions

  1. Roughly chop tomatoes (excess juice removed if desired), bell pepper, onion, garlic, jalapeno, and cilantro.
  2. Add all ingredients to a food processor or blender. Pulse to combine until salsa reaches desired consistency. (I leave mine slightly chunky.)
  3. 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.
