Lucia's Mexican Salsa

This is a yummy homemade salsa.


Lucia's Mexican Salsa
10 whole tomatoes
5 garlic cloves
1 onion
1/2 cup sliced pickled jalapeno peppers
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
1 tablespoon salt

Preheat oven to "broil" and move an oven rack to the highest position in the oven closest to the broiler (I have an electric oven).


Place tomatoes on a sheet pan and broil in the oven until the skin on the tomatoes are charred and blackened.  This should only take about 5-10 minutes.  Flip them over and char the opposite side.

 In the mean time, chop garlic cloves and onion and place food processor.  Process until chopped finely.  You may need to wipe down the sides of your food processor bowl to make sure all the onion is chopped finely.

Add the hot tomatoes and jalapeno peppers to the onion and garlic and process until no longer lumpy.  (You may need to work in batches).

 Pour into bowl and stir in lime juice, cilantro and salt.  Cover with tight fitting lid and refrigerate overnight.  

Enjoy on anything and everything!

YUM!
