Homemade Salsa

My parent's have a huge garden and an over abundance of tomatoes. I really wanted to use a few of their tomatoes and I thought what better way to use them then to make salsa! There are so many salsa recipes out there and I have only ever tried this one but it was sooo good and easy that I thought it deserved a post on this blog. I seriously just put all the ingredients in a blender and voila, homemade salsa! I found the recipe on this cute blog.

My Favorite Salsa

Ingredients:
2 fresh jalapeno peppers, seeded and very coarsely chopped
4 cloves garlic, halved
2 large vine-ripened tomatoes
1 (28 0z.) can diced tomatoes (drained or not, depending on how much liquid you want in your salsa) you could also use chopped fresh tomatoes
2 tbsp. red wine vinegar
1 tbsp. cumin
1/2 sweet yellow onion, coarsely chopped
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground cayenne pepper
1/4 cup fresh cilantro
juice of one lime

Directions:
In the bowl of a food processor, combine the jalapenos and garlic. Process until finely chopped. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. Add all other ingredients to the food processor. Pulse in very brief pulses until the vegetables have reached the size you desire (it does not take many pulses so don’t overdo it). Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to blend.
