2–3 large fresh tomatoes (or 1, if it is a huge homegrown tomato like the ones we have had in the Farm Market recently!)
1/2 large red onion (or white, if preferred)
1–2 jalapeno or serrano chile peppers
handful of cilantro leaves
1/2 – 1 garlic clove, minced
juice of 1 lime
salt to taste
Optional:
1/2 a pineapple
1 large mango
2–3 peaches
1–2 avocados
Instructions
Dice or chop first four ingredients, as well as any fruit to be added. Toss in bowl, add garlic, lime juice and salt. Taste and add more jalapeno/serrano as desired.
Serve as an appetizer with tortilla chips or use to accompany chicken or fish.
Tip: This salsa is great after it has sat in the fridge for a few hours, giving the flavors a chance to meld. (If using avocado, add just before serving.)
