Here’s where I’m going to blow your mind. Throw the first five ingredients into the blender. Squeeze in the lime juice and hit the switch on that blender. You may need to cut the half onion into quarters to get it to fit but other than that, there is no chopping needed.

​ You’ll have to stop a couple of times to push down the non-blended ingredients to the bottom but it really is as simple as that.

​ Hint: One whole jalapeno makes a spicy salsa. For a medium salsa use half a jalapeno with the seeds. For mild, use half a seeded jalapeno.

Enjoy your salsa on everything from fresh grilled chicken and fish (my fave), to dipping with chips.
