Garden Salsa

Salsa Fresca, Pico Di Gallo...this fresh salsa can go by many names.  All you need to know is that is delicious and simple and can be used for many applications.  From fish to dip, this salsa brings the flavors of summer to your house.   

Garden Salsa Ingredients


1 cup of chopped Garden Tomatoes
1/2 medium chopped red onion
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
1 small jalapeno, chopped
1 tsp. salt
1 Tb white vinegar
Juice from half of a lime


   Notes on the ingredients:

1. Garden tomatoes are best but if you find ripe (flavorful) store tomatoes then those are fine too.
2. You can use any onions.  I just like the color (and flavor) of the red onion in this application.
3. Cilantro and jalapeno can be used to your liking. I obviously like both a lot.  
4. Remember to taste jalapeno before putting it in to see how hot it is.  If quite hot then remove the ribs and seeds.  If not so hot,  add the jalapeno seeds and all but remember that the vinegar will bring out more heat. 


Directions

1.  Add all of the ingredients to a bowl, stir, serve and enjoy. 

I usually just enjoy this with a bag of some tortilla chips but would be great to finish off some grilled chicken, fish or pork.
