SEE FISH SALSA

by Stefanie

Well, I wish I was coordinated enough to do the salsa.  Zumba has taught me that it's not exactly my forte...but this is a salsa I can do:

There is nothing better to do with fresh, summer tomatoes than making salsa.  We make it in LARGE batches at our house with really no set recipe but here is the gist:

In a food processor we blend 6-8 tomatoes, a handful of parsley, two handfuls of cilantro, one large onion (yellow or red or a little of both), several cloves of garlic, 3 or so stalks of celery, a sweet pepper, a hot pepper (if you want--we often don't), two or more tablespoons of fresh lemon juice (or lime or a combination of both), and sea salt to taste.  You really can't go wrong--unless your onions are strong and you put in too much.  Sometimes I don't have all the above veggies.  Today I made some and was lacking sweet peppers.  I had some radishes, so I threw several of those in.  It's just kind of whatever--  although I would say the essentials are tomatoes, onion, cilantro, and lemon.  Make it for your taste and how it looks.  I personally like to see a lot of green in mine; I don't want it to look like straight tomatoes.
Enjoy!
