Dice the Roma tomatoes into small pieces and add them to a medium-sized mixing bowl.
Finely chop half of a red onion and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes.

Mince the garlic cloves and stir them into the mixture.
Chop the cilantro leaves into small pieces and add them to the bowl. Avoid using large stems.
Squeeze the juice of one to two limes into the mixing bowl to add brightness and acidity.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the salsa for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
