Ingredients

• 4 medium (about 1 pound) yellow tomatoes
• 0.5 medium red onion
• 1 small jalapeño pepper
• 0.25 cup, chopped cilantro
• 1 medium, juiced lime
• 1 clove, minced garlic
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons ground cumin (optional)
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Wash the yellow tomatoes, red onion, jalapeño pepper, and cilantro thoroughly under cold running water.

Step 2

Dice the yellow tomatoes into small, evenly sized pieces and place them in a medium-sized mixing bowl.

Step 3

Finely chop the red onion and add it to the bowl with the tomatoes.

Step 4

Remove the stem and seeds from the jalapeño pepper for a milder salsa. Chop the pepper finely and add it to the mixing bowl.

Step 5

Add the chopped cilantro to the bowl.

Step 6

Juice the lime into a small bowl, ensuring no seeds fall in, and pour the fresh lime juice over the salsa mixture.

Step 7

Add the minced garlic, salt, and ground cumin (if using) to the salsa, then drizzle with olive oil.

Step 8

Gently toss all the ingredients together until evenly combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 9

Serve immediately with tortilla chips or as a topping for tacos, grilled meats, or eggs. For the best flavor, allow the salsa to rest in the refrigerator for 15-30 minutes to let the flavors meld.
