Fresh Tomato Salsa
The best flavor will come from ripe, firm tomatoes that have not been refrigerated. Measurements do not have to be exact so use more or less of any ingredient per your taste. I like to drain the diced tomatoes in a strainer while doing other prep but you don’t have to. For super spicy, use a serrano pepper. - Jenny Jones

Wow! I just “discovered” you on youtube and I haven’t yet tried any of your recipes, yet. But I gotta tell ya, Jenny, I love to watch you cook! I love the simplicity of your recipes. And I love that you don’t use fancy schmancy ingredients that I don’t already have on hand and I, also, can actually pronounce the ingredients! I’ve got your website bookmarked and you’ll be hearing from me soon. I think tomorrow I might start with the chicken pot pie or maybe the baked ziti or maybe the ribs! Oh my, it all sounds so goooood!!! Ciao!
I think my favorite restaurant roasts their tomatoes for the salsa, it’s really wonderful. I like any salsa and your recipe is the same as mine. You rock!
