Fresh Salsa

This past weekend we were blessed with a 60 degree Saturday in January. To take advantage of the beautiful weather we decided to have a cookout. One of my favorite summer appetizers is a homemade salsa. Below is my simple, delicious, and healthy salsa. 

Ingredients:

1/2 bushel cilantro

1 lime

1/2 jalapeno

1 clove garlic

pinch of salt

1 can whole tomatoes

Directions:

1. Remove leaves from cilantro and place in food processor. Add half the jalapeno, with seeds for extra heat, and the clove of garlic. Cover with juice from the lime. Chop in the food processor. 

2. Add the whole tomatoes without adding the juice. Chop in food processor. Add salt to taste. 

And that is it! You can add less lime if you would like your salsa thicker or add fresh tomatoes when they are in season. It is a super simple recipe but seems to be the hit of every party! Here is hoping for more warm winter days!
