Ingredients
- 3 medium tomatoes on the vine diced
- ½ small red onion diced
- ½ teaspoon jalapeno pepper seeded and finely chopped
- ⅓ bunch cilantro roughly chopped
- 1 green onion thinly sliced
- 1 large garlic clove minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- ⅛ teaspoon sea salt
- ⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cumin
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients, and stir to combine.
- Place in the fridge for about 30 minutes to allow to flavors to meld.
Notes
- Go for firm but juicy tomatoes (like Roma or vine-ripened). Overripe ones can make the salsa watery.
- If your tomatoes are extra juicy, drain some liquid before serving to avoid sogginess.
- Uniform, small dice ensures even flavor in every bite — no one wants a huge chunk of onion or jalapeno.
