    Ingredients

    • 2 large ripe, red slicing tomatoes, cored and chopped
      1 small white onion, chopped
      1 green onion, top included, chopped
      1 to 3 jalapeno peppers, finely chopped
      1/4 cup cilantro leaves, minced
      Juice of lime
      1/2 teaspoon salt

    Directions

    Using a serrated knife, chop tomatoes. If using plum tomatoes, add 2 tablespoons water. In a medium bowl, toss together the tomatoes, onions, peppers, and cilantro.
    Squeeze lime juice over the mixture and sprinkle on the salt. Allow to rest 30 minutes before serving to allow salt to draw juice from the tomatoes. Stir again just before serving.
