My brother "Choral Responses" posted his favorite salsa recipe. We have many salsa recipes that we like in our family, but here is our family staple. This recipe came from a friend from church who is Mexican. She doesn't measure, and neither do I. I'll give approximate amounts, but you can adjust to your liking.
2-3 Chopped large ripe tomatoes
1/2 Cup Chopped onion (white is best)
1/2 Cup chopped cilantro
3 large finely chopped/seeded fresh jalapeno peppers
1 tsp. cumin
2-3 cloves chopped garlic
the juice from half a lime
salt and pepper to taste
You could also add corn, or kidney beans if desired.

Black beans work nice too. For extra heat, add a serrano chili or two. For you real masochists, add a habenero--1/2 to a whole!ingesses
Oh, and if you want to make it really spicy, don't take the seeds out of the jalapenos. I usually take out the seeds because even though my tongue loves them, my stomach doesn't.
