1
Prepare the Vegetables
Wash the tomatoes, jalapeño peppers, and cilantro thoroughly under cold water. Dice the tomatoes and onion into small pieces. Remove the seeds from the jalapeños (if you prefer less heat), and chop them coarsely. Chop the cilantro finely.
2
Prepare the Garlic
Peel the garlic cloves and mince them finely.

3
Blend Ingredients
In a blender or food processor, combine the diced tomatoes, chopped jalapeños, chopped cilantro, diced onion, minced garlic, lime juice, salt, and black pepper.
4
Puréed Salsa
Blend the mixture until smooth or to your desired consistency. If you prefer a chunkier salsa, pulse the blender a few times instead of blending continuously.

5
Taste and Adjust
Taste the salsa and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, lime juice, or jalapeño as desired.
6
Serve
Transfer the salsa to a serving bowl and enjoy with tortilla chips, tacos, or your favorite dishes.
