| Here is the best salsa recipe I have ever made. | | | | Drop in 1 teaspoon on minced garlic. You can use the |
| My family does not even like regular jar or store | | | | stuff out of the jar from the store or put in 2 whole |
| bought salsa anymore. I use to make salsa and cook | | | | cloves. |
| the ingredients on the stove but once was in a hurry | | | | Wash the tomatoes and cut off the tops and cut |
| and just used everything straight from the garden, | | | | them in half our fourths and put them in the food |
| after a little washing. The result was a flavor burst in | | | | processor on top of the already chopped up peppers |
| my mouth with all the wonderful flavors that were | | | | and onions. |
| not toned down by cooking them away. | | | | Process these until the tomatoes are well chopped. |
| Hope you enjoy and give me your comments. | | | | Open the food process and remove the container |
| 8 tomatoes | | | | and put a strainer in your sink and pour the mixture |
| 3 green peppers | | | | from the processor into the strainer and let strain all |
| 4 jalapeno peppers (you can remove some or add | | | | the excess liquid from the tomatoes. I usually use my |
| some depending on your taste) | | | | well washed hand in their to stir up the salsa and |
| 1 small onion | | | | speed up the process but you can use a big spoon. |
| Garlic cloves or minced garlicsalt | | | | When Most of the excess liquid is gone dump the |
| Olive Oil | | | | strainer mixture into a bowl or container. |
| Parsley | | | | Add 1 teaspoon salt, 1 tablespoon dried parsley, 3 to |
| Lemon or lime juice | | | | 4 tablespoons lemon or lime juice. I prefer lime juice |
| Cut off the tops of the green peppers and remove | | | | but once ran out and used lemon juice and it worked |
| seeds. Cut off the tops of the jalapenos but do not | | | | just as well. I use the bottled juice but it you have |
| remove seeds. Cut the outer skin off the onion and | | | | fresh it would be even better. Add 2 tablespoons of |
| cut in four sections. | | | | extra virgin olive oil. |
| Place these items in a food processor and run until | | | | Stir everything together with a spoon and quickly get |
| everything is small. I usually do not leave big chunks | | | | out your chips and get some because as soon as |
| of the jalapeno as small chopped bits blend better | | | | your family knows you have homemade salsa made |
| and give flavor throughout the salsa. | | | | it will not be around for very long. |
