Pico de Gallo

Ingredients
6 roma (plum) tomatoes, diced
1/2 red onion, minced
3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/2-1 Anaheim chilli pepper, roasted and minced(leave seeds in for heat)
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp red wine vinegar
4 oz canned tomato sauce preferably from plum tomatoes
use Cholula Hot sauce for additional heat
salt to taste




Directions
1. Stir the tomatoes, onion, cilantro, Anaheim pepper, lemon juice, garlic,vinegar, tomato sauce, hot sauce, salt together in a bowl. Refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving.

Mine is more like a sauce than a salsa... but we love it.

Two cans of stewed tomatoes, drain most of juice off.
2 tsp. of Crushed red pepper flakes
2 TBLSP of Sugar
2 TBLSP of White Vinegar

Pulse tomotoes in processor or blender a few times to break down or to chop.
Add in the pepper flakes, sugar, and vinegar. Bring to a slight boil on the stove and let simmer about 5 min. Serve Hot or warm. (Heat of peppers will intensify as you go).

NOTE (I use this sauce on all mexican food, and when I make egg rolls, or on anything really). My family loves it.

I don't like cilantro.

Annaquilts- that sounds divine! I might use lime juice (but we have lemons in the garden). I like my salsa chunky and zingy.

Here's mine:

4 roma tomatoes, chopped
1 white onion, diced
1 jalapeno, diced, seeds and all
2 cloves garlc, minced
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
2 tbsp. lime juice
salt and pepper to taste

I don't have a recipe but this is what I do and everyone raves over it.

1 large can tomatoes( quick pulsed in processor, but still in chunks)
1 tomato sauce
1 large onion
small can corn niblets(drained)
small can black beans(undrained)
small bunch cilantro
dab of sugar and vinegar, lime juice, lemon juice(something for tartness
smoked salt to taste

I don't use jalapeno (we like mild), but could use to taste

My favorite salsa has NO tomatos!! I love cucumber or mango salsa!!!!
