Salsa Fresca



This is a recipe from my recipe book that I am working on. It is in the preliminary stages now - figuring out all the exact amounts, picture taking, etc. so I'm not sure when I'll be finished, but I'll keep y'all posted! I was very surprised when I tasted this salsa the first time I made it. It is so simple and yet ssooo delicious!

Ingredients:

- 1 pint grape tomatoes (or equivalent of other kind)
- 1 stalk celery
-1 Tbsp green onions, optional
- 1/4 c cilantro
- juice of 1/2 lime or more if it's not very juicy.

Directions:

1. Place all ingredients in food processor and pulse until all is well combined but still a little chunky. Or if you prefer, you can blend it more.

2. Serve with fresh raw veggies - I like cucumber, celery, and romaine lettuce.

You can also add 1/2 of an avocado to this if you would like to make it a little hardier.

Note: If you don't have a blender or food processor, you can just dice everything and make a pico de gallo type salsa.
