Amber's Sassy Salsa


Last night I made this at a Silpada party and there was a crew hovering around this fresh tasting salsa.  With all these fabulous summer vegetables indulge in a fresh, festive salsa
3 cups tomatoes chopped
1 clove garlic minced
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 long green chili pepper, seeded and chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 small onion chopped
1/4 tsp group cumin
salt to taste
1/2 tsp oregano (I use fresh, but dry is fine)
2 tbsp fresh cilantro chopped

Optional: 1 ear of raw corn.  Corn removed from the cob and added to the mix.
I use the food processor for all the peppers, onions, and garlic.  It keeps the process painless.  Then I add all the other ingredients in a big bowl.  Mix it up and let it sit in the fridge.  I like to make it at least a day in advance before an event because it tastes better when it has a chance to sit together.
Skip the chips!  Use celery or cucumber slices to scoop up salsa.  Yummy!  Or put this fun salsa on burgers, potatoes or eggs.
