Make Delicious Salsa

While staying at The Four Seasons in Mexico,


I fell in LOVE with the delicious salsa they serve their


guests at every meal. Dipping simple corn tortilla chips


into this mexican salsa was the highlight of my meal.


It is low calorie, simple to make and a true party hit.


I make a batch every week!


Catch my other recipe for Salsa Tomatillo that I also got from


the chef there.


Instructions


1. Dice tomatoes into small pieces. An easy way to do this is to


cut your tomato in half and then turn the tomato face down and make


3 to 4 more slices in a vertical direction. Then carefully keep all


the pieces together and slice horizontally. Add to a medium size bowl.


2. Dice half a large onion. Use the same dicing technique as


you used for the tomato. Try to keep the pieces smaller than


the tomato.


3. Wash and dry a handful of fresh cilantro. Keeping bunch


together in your hand, dice into very small pieces.


4. Use the juice from up to 2 limes. Cut the limes in half and


use a lime juicer to squeeze out the juice. Start with half a lime and taste


salsa. You can keep adding lime halves according to how much juice you get


from your limes.


5. Shake in salt and pepper. You may want more or less salt according


to your taste.


Stir all ingredients. Transfer to smaller bowl and refridgerate until


ready to serve.
