Salsa w/ Tomatoes, Red Onion, & Garlic

This homemade Salsa recipe consists of a few simple ingredients: tomatoes, red
onion, garlic, lime juice, and a dash of cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper.
Feel free to mix and match your own favorite ingredients in this recipe. I'd
ordinarily add in a few garden fresh peppers. Although I added so many peppers
to the Pinto Beans, Mexican Rice, & Roasted Potatoes that I used in the
Enchiladas
[https://catfishoutofwater.com/enchiladas-w-pinto-beans-spanish-rice-roasted-potatoes/]for
this recipe that I didn't bother to make a whole enchilada sauce. Which is one
of the fun things about cooking food at home. You can adjust the spice level and
amount of effort that you want to put into something!

🧂 Ingredients

4 tomatoes

quartered
1/2 red onion

quartered
2 cloves garlic
1 lime

juiced
dash cumin
dash coriander
dash salt
dash pepper

Instructions

1 Place tomatoes, carrots, and garlic in a food processor. Quickly pulse about
10-15 times, or until the ingredients are loosely chopped.

If you want a chunkier salsa, pulse less. If you want a thinner salsa, more like
an enchilada sauce, purée until smooth.

Alternatively, you can just dice the tomatoes and carrots and mince the garlic.
I'm really just being lazy here! But it is a quick and easy trick to dicing
produce.
2 Add tomato mixture and the rest of the ingredients to a saucepan. Simmer over
medium heat for about 20 minutes, or until thickened to the desired consistency.
3 Cool and either serve immediately or chilled.
