How to Make Very Quick And Easy Salsa

  1. Combine 3 ripe tomatoes, ½ medium red onion (finely chopped), 1 jalapeño pepper (seeded and minced – add more for extra heat!), ½ cup chopped cilantro, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon black pepper in a blender.
  2. Blend until your desired consistency is reached. For a chunky salsa, pulse a few times. For a smoother salsa, blend for a longer time.
  3. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more lime juice for extra tang or salt for more depth of flavor.
  4. Serve immediately or chill for later. The flavors will deepen if allowed to sit for at least 30 minutes.
