Fresh Salsa With Cilantro Lime Food

CILANTRO SALSA

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl.
• Cover and chill at least 2 hours before serving.

CILANTRO LIME SALSA

Steps:

• Roughly chop the tomatoes, bell peppers, red onion, and fresh cilantro. Mince the garlic cloves. Make sure to remove the seeds, membranes, and stem from the bell peppers and cut off the tomato stems. Add it all to a large food processor cup.
• Add 2 tbsp of fresh lime juice, 1 tsp ground cumin, 1/4 tsp smoked paprika, and 1/4 tsp sea salt to the food processor. Put the lid on and pulse it a few times or until you are happy with the consistency of the salsa.
• Taste the salsa and add more lime juice and salt if it's needed. Put the salsa in an airtight container and store in the fridge for 30 minutes to chill prior to serving.

• PLACE tomatilloes and desired remaining ingredients into a food processor.
• PROCESS until smooth.

FRESH SALSA- FOR COOKING OR PLAIN- LIME AND CILANTRO FREE

Steps:

• Chop and combine all ingredients.
• If using the salsa plain, I prefer to simmer it in a saucepan for 20 minutes or until the onions are cooked. If using it in another recipe that involved cooking, I skip this step.
• If a smooth salsa is desired, blend in a blender as needed.
• Cooked, it can keep for several weeks in the fridge.
• Feel free to substitute the parsley with cilantro and add the lime juice if you like of course! Adjust the spices and peppers to your taste. This combination is a little hot, especially if you use 5 jalapenos! Enjoy

FRESH SALSA

EASY CILANTRO LIME ROTEL SALSA

Steps:

• Dice/chop the onion based on your preferences. I prefer to chop mine in a food processor.
• Remove cilantro leaves from stems. Discard stems, and chop cilantro leaves or run through food processor slightly.
• If you prefer really chunky salsa, then simply mix all ingredients together.
• I prefer a more blended salsa, so I use a food processor to make my Rotel and petite diced tomatoes a bit smaller.
• I never measure the minced garlic, cumin, lime juice, salt, or pepper, so the amounts are all estimates. You can adjust to your own personal tastes.
• Enjoy! I've been known to just eat it straight from the bowl. :-).
