The great thing about this recipe is that you can add more or less of each ingredient for your own liking. I added more garlic and less cilantro than the original because that's how I roll... I added the cilantro back to this recipe because everyone agreed I didn't put enough the first time!
Ingredients:
2 large tomatoes chopped
1/4 cup yellow onion
1 Tsp minced garlic
1 Tsp ground cumin
2 Tbsp fresh squeezed lime juice
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and diced
1 banana pepper, seeded and diced
1/2 cup minced cilantro
Salt and Pepper
Directions:
Combine all ingredients. Pour into food processor or chopper and chop for a few seconds (just enough to chop it lightly, not puree).
Add salt and pepper to taste.
Refrigerate for several hours before serving.
Add In's:
Black beans and corn (1 can of each, rinse the beans)
or
1/4 cup diced green mango
I titled this Daddy Rocks Salsa in honor of my father, who hovered the entire time I made it trying to tell me everything from which knife to how much lime juice to add... hee hee! Love you, Dad!
Please share your add-in and alterations!
