How to Make Salsa Low Cal

  1. Dice the tomato and finely chop the red onion. Mince the jalapeño, removing seeds for less heat if desired.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the diced tomato, red onion, cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice, cumin, salt, and pepper.
  3. Gently mix all ingredients until well combined.
  4. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more lime juice for extra zest or jalapeño for more heat.
  5. Transfer the salsa to an airtight container. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. This step is optional but highly recommended!
  6. Serve chilled with your favorite tortilla chips, tacos, grilled chicken or fish, or as a topping for your favorite dishes. Enjoy!
