Ingredients
- 8 medium tomatoes halved, (I used Roma tomatoes)
- 2 medium onions quartered
- 6 cloves garlic peeled
- 4.5 ounce mild diced green chiles (1 can)
- ½ cup fresh cilantro
- 2 tablespoon lime juice freshly squeezed
- ½ teaspoon salt or to taste
- ½ teaspoon pepper or to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350℉.
- Place the tomatoes, onions and garlic on a baking sheet and roast for 15 minutes or just until the onions and tomatoes start to get a little char on them. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the tomatoes cool for about 5 minutes.
- Add the tomatoes, onions, garlic, green chiles, cilantro, lime juice and salt and pepper to a food processor and pulse a few times until you get the desired consistency.
- Pour in a bowl and cover with plastic wrap (or an airtight container) and refrigerate for 2 to 4 hours before serving.

Notes
- To add more spiciness to the salsa, add 1 or 2 jalapeños (or other favorite hot peppers) to the baking sheet and roast along with the tomatoes.
- To get a tangier salsa, add more freshly squeezed lime juice.
- This salsa will last for 5-7 days in the fridge, or 3-4 months in the freezer.
