Fresh Salsa with Garden Tomatoes

by Jessica on August 3, 2009


Unfortunately, we didn’t get a garden in this year. The days just slipped away from me. But, my husband has a coworker with too many tomatoes. Amen and amen. He’s been sharing with us. We’ve enjoyed them on salads, on pizza, and in salsa. Isn’t this pretty with both yellow and red tomatoes?

You don’t really need a recipe. Just combine the following ingredients in the proportions that you like. Love cilantro? Toss in a big handful? Like it spicy? Add several chopped chiles. Customize this to your tastes. Just remember that fresh tomato salsa is best eaten the day it is made.

Fresh Salsa with Garden Tomatoes

2 cups chopped tomatoes
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
1/4 cup chopped red onion
1-2 Tablespoons finely minced jalapeno or serrano chile, start with less and work your way up in heat
juice of one lime
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

Combine all ingredients in large mixing bowl. Serve with chips or with your favorite Mexican Food dishes.

I don’t know how I missed this the first time. Oh, wait, that was in the middle of living with my parents and having a newborn. Never mind. ;) Anyway, this looks AMAZING and has me beyond frustrated that my garden tomatoes, while abundant, are all still green. Soon enough…
