I tried 2 new salsa recipes this week. 

I prefer the 1st one, but I think they're both good.

Grab some chips!

FRESH SALSA

Ingredients:

5 Roma tomatos

1 (14.5 oz) can petite diced tomatoes with green chilis, undrained

2 green onions

3 Tbsp yellow onion

2 serrano peppers, stems removed (use less or omit if you don't like spicy foods)

1/3 cup fresh cilantro (about a handful)

1 clove garlic

Juice of 1 lime

1/2 tsp chili powder

1/4 tsp ground cumin

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Combine all ingredients in a food processor and chop until all ingredients are finely chopped. Alternately, if you don't have a food processor finely chop veggies then pour into a mixing bowl, add canned tomatos, lime juice, chili powder, cumin and season with salt and pepper to taste and stir. Serve with tortilla chips. Store in refrigerator up to 1 week.
