Salsa Fresca
Report
This salsa fresca is a blend of diced ripe tomatoes, onion, jalapeno, cilantro and lime juice, all mixed together to make a light and refreshing dip or condiment. A quick and easy recipe that tastes so much better than store bought salsa, and always gets rave reviews.

Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups diced Roma tomatoes cored and seeded
- 1/3 cup white onion rinsed in cold water and finely chopped
- 1 Jalapeño seeds and ribs removed, then minced
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic minced
- 1/3 cup cilantro leaves chopped
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- salt to taste
Instructions
- Place the Roma tomatoes, onion, jalapeno, garlic, cilantro, lime juice and salt in a bowl. Stir to combine.
- Let stand at room temperature for 20 minutes to let the flavors blend. Serve immediately, or refrigerate for later use.
Notes
- I prefer to use Roma tomatoes as they have a firm texture and don’t contain as many seeds. Vine ripened tomatoes are also a good choice. You really can use any tomato you like, so long as you remove the seeds and dice it into the appropriate size pieces.
- This dish will stay fresh in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. I don’t recommend freezing it, as the texture will change and become watery.
- I’ve written this recipe to have a mild level of heat by removing the seeds and ribs from the jalapenos. If you prefer a spicy salsa, leave some of the seeds and ribs in the jalapeno.
