Tomato Salsa

I read that Southern Californians are having a hard time with their tomatoes. Up here in the middle I’m having the best season I’ve ever had. Just one plant seems to have dried up for some reason. I’ll have to check the variety. I know it was a new one. But my Better Boys and Beefsteaks and Early Girls are going whole hog and taste fantastic. During tomato season, I almost always have a bowl of tomato salsa in the fridge.

Tomato Salsa

Ingredients

  • 2 cups tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 small onion, diced
  • 1/4 cup or more fresh chopped cilantro
  • 2 Tbs lime juice
  • salt to taste
  • 2-3 minced garlic cloves
  • 1 jalapeno, minced

Instructions

  • Mix this all up and let it sit 30 minutes.

I don’t always put jalapeno in my tomato salsa.

Sometimes I add some green onion. Sometimes I don’t have lime juice. Definitely always tomatoes, salt, cilantro.
