I love this recipe. I sometimes remove about a third, food process, and mix it back in. Better on day 2.

Very good starter recipe. I made it, ate it then gave the rest away so I could make more & customize it to my liking better. I recommend doing the same. For me, too much onion, not enough garlic. I didnt use the tomatillo (honestly cuz Im not sure what it is!) But it was wonderful because everything was done with fresh garden produce. Making it again tonight.

Delicious! I thought it turned out very well and a very good balance of flavors. It makes a nice big batch and also great consistency!

Fantastic! My husband and I cannot eat cilantro so threw in some fresh sweet basil instead. I served it on Sunday when my son and his fiance were over and everyone agreed it was much better than any store bought they'd ever had!

I took it to a mexican dinner and it was hit. I cut the amount of onion to about half and the garlic to only two cloves. I didn't have any jalapeno peppers so I made a mild with no peppers and a extra hot with habaneros. I used the food processor after adding everything but the peppers I took half of the salsa out for the mild and added some habaneros, processed it and I had my extra hot salsa.

I really enjoyed this salsa. And even though I had to make it with dried cilantro, it still came out great! I look forward to making it again with fresh cilantro.

pretty good! I make this version for myself and then a version with three minced serrano peppers for my husband who prefers hot salsa.

This was a great recipe. My husband says "I think you are on to something here!" I make it frequently now for a light lunch or snack for guests. Very easy! (sometimes I even leave out the cilantro but use yellow pepper for extra flavor.)

We make this salsa every couple of months or when we find Roma tomatoes on sale. Our family loves it. Our daughter takes it to school to share with her friends! Great recipe!

This recipe calls for way too much onion. We added 2 extra tomatoes, more lime juice, black beans and corn and it still had an aftertaste of pungent onions. If I make this recipe again we'll cut the onion in half.

This is more like pico de gallo to me, not really a salsa, but it was still very tasty. I followed the recipe exactly, and ended up using the entire jalapeno. It's really good with lime flavored tortilla chips.

I'd say that this is really pico de gallo. But, we really like it with taco chips... low-cal & tasty snack!

I went to a party last week and a friend of mine brought a dip similar to this one, and after trying it I had to make it. I came here and found this recipe. It has been a week and I've made this dip twice! I must admit that they weren't the same recipe, this one is actually better! The garlic and jalapenos give it quite the kick, and my family is in love with Cilantro, so this is the perfect recipe!

Good, basic salsa recipe. Actually, more like pico de gallo than salsa, but you could always put in food processor. We like this recipe just the way it is - it is chunky and full of flavor. I'm not sure about the exact measurements because I usually just "eyeball" amounts, but the ingredients compliment each other well.

This salsa is mostly onion, and very strongly so. The cilantro is very strong, too. It would be better if these two ingredients were reduced by about half, and maybe more tomatoes used.
