Thank you to all who left such sweet comments about the western tale. I adore you all!
We have had an abundance of fresh tomatoes at our house, I love it!! I’ve been making sauces, freezing tomatoes and making this yummy fresh salsa too. Enjoy.
What You Need
2-3 Medium sized fresh tomatoes (from 1 lb to 1 1/2 lb)( stems removed,chopped)
1/2 Bermuda ( red) onion ( chopped)
1 Clove garlic ( chopped)
1 Jalapeño chili pepper (stems, ribs, seeds removed, finely chopped) You can use canned if you prefer
1 Serano chili pepper (stems, ribs, seeds removed, finely chopped) You can use canned if you prefer
1 Lime ( juice only)
1/2 Cup Fresh cilantro ( chopped)
Salt and pepper to taste
Medium mixing bowl
Small Plate
Before you start: Prepare the chilies, be very careful while handling hot peppers.Avoid touching them with your hands (I wear thin latex cooking gloves). Use a knife and fork to cut up the chilies on a small plate.Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and hot water after handling and avoid touching your eyes for several hours. Set aside some of the seeds from the peppers ( If the salsa isn’t hot enough, you can add a few more later)
Let’s make it! Combine all of the ingredients in a medium sized bowl and mix well. Try a little bit. If the chilies make the salsa too hot, add some more chopped tomato. If it’s not hot enough, carefully add a few of the seeds from the chilies. Cover and place the bowl into the refrigerator for at least an hour for the flavors to marinate.
Makes approximately 3-4 cups.

It has been some time since I have made fresh Salsa…not since I lived in Texas. You make it just the way I did minus the chili peppers…it is an excellent snack! ~Hugs, M

Only fitting with all the tomatoes coming out of your garden that salsa is on the menu. I love good salsa and corn chips. It was a little rainy this weekend so after checking in on my youngest daughter Rachel, who was in the car accident, and wishing her a happy 27th B/D, then a quick stop to wish my Aunt Katie a happy 103rd B/D it was home to finish my school work. It was a really good feeling when I had done all that I could that was available on line. Now I can breathe easy for a while. Hope you are feeling well & rested as you read this. Have a wonderful week.
Big Hugs,
Odie

My kids love salsa, but I can’t do anything spicy. My innards can’t take it.
