Salsa

We got this recipe from Aunt Michele. Amy taught me how to make it and we make it every year when the tomatoes get ripe. You can use your food processor to make the chopping go faster. Make sure you wear plastic gloves or baggies on your hands when you chop the peppers and don't touch your eyes ( we learned that the hard way!) This recipe is the reason we decided to start growing a garden!

4 c. fresh chopped tomatoes ( or can use drained, canned tomatoes)
1 large finely chopped onion
2 cloves minced garlic
1 finely chopped jalapeno pepper, seed it if you don't want it to be as hot
1/3 c fresh chopped cilantro
1 1/2 tsp cumin
2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp oregano
1 TBLSP lime juice

Mix all together and refrigerate.
