Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 3 cups diced tomatoes (I used 4 medium tomatoes and 2 plum tomatoes)
- 1/4 cup of very finely diced onion (any kind)
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped cilantro
- 1/4 teaspoon finely diced jalapeno
- 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon lime juice
- 2 tablespoons white vinegar
- 3/4 teaspoon of salt, more if you want
- 1/4 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 clove of garlic, finely diced
Instructions
- Core, cut and gut your tomatoes. Remove the core with a coring tool. If you don’t have that just use a paring knife. Cut all the tomatoes in half. Using your fingers remove all the pulp/guts of the tomatoes. Make sure to have a bowl on hand for all the pulp. It gets messy!
- Next, take your tomato halves and slice them into thin strips. The dice the thin strips into very small pieces and put them in a large bowl.
- For the onion, I used half of a very small onion. I slice it into strips, then diced it into fine pieces as well. Add it to your bowl with the tomatoes.
- Finely chop the cilantro and add to the bowl.
- Squeeze your fresh lemon and lime and add to the bowl. I cut them in half and squeezed what I needed into a ramekin. Then I used a measuring spoon to make sure I was adding the correct amount.
- Now add the salt, cumin, and vinegar to the bowl.
- For the jalapeno. I don’t like my salsa too spicy so I cut just the tip of the jalapeno. I diced it finely and added it to the bowl. If you are more daring, you can certainly add more jalapeno if you like!
- Finely dice the garlic and add to the bowl.
- Mix all ingredients together until well combined.
- Enjoy with chips and salsa, on your eggs, fajitas, quesadillas, or empanadas!
