Equipment

  • 1 Cutting board
  • 1 Chef's knife
  • 1 Blender

Ingredients
  

  • 14.5 oz Diced Tomatoes Fire roasted
  • 1 small onion white or yellow
  • 3 Cloves Garlic
  • 1 Tbsp Dried Cumin
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper
  • 3 slices Anaheim chile
  • 2 lime
  • 1 Cup Cilantro fresh

Instructions
 

  • Add canned tomatoes to the blender
  • Quarter the onion and add to blender
  • Chop slices of Amahein chile to taste and add to blender
  • Peel 3 cloves of garlic and add to the blender
  • Add cumin, salt and pepper
  • Cut limes in half and juice into the blender
  • Chop off a chunk of cilantro and add to the blender
  • Place the lid on the blender and process on high speed until combined.

Notes

If you prefer more heat,  substitute the anaheim chile for jalapeno, or serrano.
If you are not a fan of cilantro, you can substitute flat-leaf parsley.
This could also be made with fresh tomatoes. However, I would grill the tomatoes, onions, and peppers.
