Simple Salsa


This is a quick and easy salsa great for paleo tacos, vegetable dip, salad dressing, or served with spicy almond dippers.







Adapted from foodnetwork.com.

Ingredients
1 (28-oz) can whole or diced tomatoes, drained, reserving the juices (I use Muir Glen Fire Roasted)
1 small red onion, roughly chopped
1 Serrano chile, seeded
2 garlic cloves
juice of 2 limes
1/2 cup roughly chopped cilantro leaves
sea salt
freshly ground black pepper
extra virgin olive oil

Preparation
  1. Place onion, chile, and garlic in bowl of food processor. Pulse several times until finely chopped.
  2. Add tomatoes and lime juice and pulse several times to combine. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Add reserved tomato juice, if needed, to thin the salsa. Pulse to combine.
  4. Transfer to serving bowl, drizzle salsa with olive oil, cover with plastic wrap, and let sit for 1 hour for flavors to combine.
