10 roma tomatoes
1 large white onion
2-3 jalapeno peppers
1 yellow pepper (not bell)
1 tbsp. minced garlic
1/4 cup lime juice
1 tbsp. olive oil
1 bunch cilantro, finely chopped
1 tsp. coarse salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper

Cut tomatoes in quarters and remove all seeds. Chop tomatoes into small pieces and place in bowl. Cut jalapenos and yellow peppers in half and remove all seeds. Chop onion and peppers to a fine consistency and place in the bowl with the tomatoes. Finely chop cilantro and add to the other ingredients in the bowl. Add garlic, salt, pepper, olive oil and lime juice and mix well.

Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours. The longer you let it refrigerate, the more time the flavors have to fully mingle. I usually let it refrigerate overnight. If you find that it is too spicy, add a bit more lime juice to neutralize the spice. As with any recipe, add or reduce ingredients to suit your taste.
