Note and Tips:

  • For this recipe, we decided to give it a little heat by adding in some chopped jalapeno.  And, you can easily adjust the amount of heat to your liking, just by adjusting the number of jalapenos you add into the mix.
  • Spicy salsa is made with all the fresh ingredients you would expect.  Chopped tomatoes, garlic, onion, fresh cilantro, jalapeno, and lime juice are all combined in one bowl and then chilled before serving with your favorite chips.
  • Don’t want it spicy? No problem. Just omit the jalapenos.
  • Fresh salsa will also stay fresh for days if kept in a sealed container and in the fridge.

Ingredients:

  • fresh ripe small tomatoes on the vine
  • fresh cilantro
  • garlic cloves
  • jalapeno
  • onion
  • lime
  • tortilla corn chips, for serving
