Directions
Fresh salsa is surprisingly easy to make and so much better than supermarket sauce. It will keep several days in the refrigerator.
Do not cook. Simply mix all ingredients well and add salsa jalapena to taste. Careful, the stuff is HOT!! Store in the refrigerator, covered, in plastic. Use on salads, on top of fried or scrambled eggs, as a dip, etc.
