Simple Salsa

Recipe by: Cecilia Donnelly "

“This is a recipe I just throw together, but it is very popular. Serve with tortilla chips”

4 large tomatoes, chopped

1 onion, chopped

1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon lime juice

1 tomatillo, diced (optional)

salt to taste

1 jalapeño pepper, minced

To Make

In a medium-size mixing bowl, combine tomatoes, onion, cilantro, garlic, lime juice, tomatillo, and salt to taste. Mix well. 

Add 1/2 of the jalapeno pepper, and taste. If you desire your salsa with more of a kick, add the remaining 1/2 jalapeno. If you are satisfied with the salsa's heat, do not add the remaining jalapeno pepper.

Cover the salsa, and chill until ready to serve.
