Ingredients
  

4 medium ripe tomatoes, diced

1 medium red onion, finely chopped

1 jalapeño, seeded and minced (adjust for spice preference)

1 cup fresh cilantro, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

Juice of 2 limes

1 teaspoon ground cumin

Salt to taste

Pepper to taste

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by washing all the vegetables thoroughly. Dice the tomatoes into small, chunky pieces, ensuring to remove excess seeds and juice for a thicker salsa. Finely chop the red onion and jalapeño.

    Mix in a Bowl: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, chopped red onion, minced jalapeño, and fresh cilantro. Use a spatula or wooden spoon to gently stir the ingredients together, allowing the flavors to blend.

      Add Flavor: Add the minced garlic, lime juice, ground cumin, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir the mixture again until everything is well incorporated.

        Taste and Adjust: Taste your salsa and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more lime juice or salt and pepper according to your personal preference.

          Chill and Serve: For the best flavor, let the salsa sit for at least 30 minutes at room temperature or refrigerate for up to 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and intensify before serving. Serve with tortilla chips, tacos, or as a topping for grilled meats.
