Lazy Day Salsa

This perfectly scoopable Lazy Day Salsa is a classic tomato salsa that is whipped up in a flash (no chopping required). #salsa #appetizer


INGREDIENTS

• 1/4 medium white onion, peeled

• 2 cloves garlic, peeled
• 1 (14.5 ounce) can Hunt's fire roasted diced tomatoes with garlic
• 1/2 fresh lime, juiced
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Add onion, jalapeno and garlic to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the bits are your desired size, about 5 or 6 times. Open cover, scrape down sides. Add remaining ingredients, pulse 1 or 2 times to combine.
2. Transfer to a serving dish and serve immediately or transfer to a pint jar and store in the refrigerator. It becomes even more flavorful the next day.
