Equipment

Ingredients

1 (14.5 oz can) diced tomatoes
1 (10 oz can) diced tomatoes with chilies
1/2 cup onion chopped
3 cloves garlic
1 jalapeno seeded and chopped
Juice of 1 lime
1/2-1 teaspoon salt
small handful cilantro

Instructions

Combine all of your ingredients into a blender of food processor.
Pulse until combined. I find that four or five pulses give us a great consistency.
Taste your salsa and add additional salt or cumin as needed.
Chill and serve.

Notes

- I like to drain my tomatoes before adding into the blender. This gives you a less watered down salsa but is optional.

- Use a quality blender or food processor.

- Add smaller amounts of cilantro during the first pulse. Taste and add more if needed.

- Remember that this recipe starts to taste more bold the longer it sits. Adding a lot of the powerful flavors in the beginning could lead to a very robust end flavor.
