Salsa MaMA kAriE style

1 jalapeno pepper (seeded and deviened if you want mild salsa)

1 onion

handful of cilantro (stemmed)

2-3 large tomatoes

2 T. tomato paste

1 T. fresh lime juice (or more, to taste)

1 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. garlic powder

Chop all ingredients. You can use a salsa maker or a food processor even a blender will work but salsa won't be very chunky. Taste and then re-season to taste. Add more peppers for hotter salsa. If you don't like the fresh salsa taste make with drained canned tomatoes.
