Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Roma tomatoes
- 1 large Avocado
- 0.5 medium Red onion
- 1 medium Jalapeño pepper
- 0.5 cup Fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 clove Garlic
- 1 large Lime
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Wash all the produce thoroughly under running water and pat dry.
Dice the Roma tomatoes into small, even pieces and transfer them to a medium mixing bowl.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, scoop out the flesh, and dice it into similar-sized pieces as the tomatoes. Add to the bowl gently to avoid mashing.
Finely dice the red onion and jalapeño pepper. For a milder salsa, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeño before dicing. Add both to the bowl.
Finely chop the fresh cilantro leaves and add them to the bowl.
Mince the garlic clove and stir it into the bowl with the other ingredients.
Cut the lime in half and juice it over the salsa mixture, ensuring to strain out any seeds.
Sprinkle in the salt and ground black pepper, then gently toss all ingredients together until well combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. If desired, let the salsa sit for 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips or as a topping for tacos, burritos, or grilled meats. Enjoy!
