So for those of you who follow my recipes know that I love to take a recipe and change it all around. This includes adding things that I like or removing things that I don't like. Sometimes I will even add extra of something and in the end the recipe is barely recognizable. For Cinco de Mayo I figured might as well make tacos and I also shared some of the dinner with friends. This dinner included a batch of my homemade salsa which I always make based on what I have available. The recipe has never been written down and sometimes changes. My friend asked me to write down the recipe to share it with her noting that her husband would have loved it. So the easiest way to share a recipe is electronically. Without further ado here is my salsa recipe that is purely paleo.
4 ripe roma tomatoes (medium-large or 2 large regular tomatoes)
Fresh Cilantro bunch about 1" diameter
1/2 medium sized yellow onion (spanish will make sweeter)
3-4 cloves fresh garlic (larger use less)
1/3 to 1/2 of whole green pepper (frozen work well too)
1 Lime -juiced (can use half lemon/lime but I'm partial to lime)
1/2 tsp sea salt (more if you love salt like me)
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp onion powder
1 tsp oregano
Place in food processor and blend. If you prefer a chunkier version I recommend taking half of the tomatoes, onion and fresh (not frozen) pepper and hand dice to add to the processed ingredients. For me, I just use the food processor! I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I do!
