Fresh Salsa

Tomatoes were on sale the other week so I got a craving for some fresh salsa. I thought I would share my little way of making it. I really don't think you could mess this up!Ingredients

Fresh tomatoes (4-5 medium size)
cilantro
garlic
jalapeno pepper
salt

1. Cut the tomato in half and squeeze out any extra juice. Then dice it really small.

2. Put 1/2 - 1 clove of garlic (depending on how garlicky you like things) into a Cuisinart. Chop it up. Then add your jalapeno (again, how ever much you like. Take out the seeds if you don't want it too spicy). Chop that up with the garlic in the Cuisinart. Then add a handful of cilantro and chop.

3. After you have all three ingredients in the Cuisinart, add about 1/2-3/4 of your tomatoes. Just pulse them in the Cuisinart. Then dump into bowl and add the rest of your tomatoes and salt to taste.

You don't have to use the Cuisinart but I don't like getting garlic smelling hands or spicy fingers from touching the jalapeno- so that is my solution. I also don't like big chunks so the Cuisinart takes care of that. Of course lots of people like onion in their salsa so add that if you like (we hate onion around here). And I like the tomatoes to not be in big chunks so that is why I put some through the Cuisinart. This batch I didn't even have a jalapeno so I just skipped it and the salsa was still really good.
