Fresh Salsa

From Cortesi Food

This is the really good salsa that we make in the salsa maker. Rachel recommends using lime juice instead of lemon juice but I don't. You can eat it alone or mix it with Velveeta cheese.

• 2 medium ripe tomatoes (quartered)
• 1/4 medium onion (quartered)
• 4 springs cilantro (parsley)
• 2 cloves of garlic
• 1 teaspoon garlic salt
• 2 tablespoons lemon or lime juice
• 1 jalapeno (1/3 for mild, 2/3 for medium, all for hot and spicy)
• Velveeta cheese (optional)

Put all the ingredients (except cheese) in the Salsa Express (or food processor) and mix to consistency desired. Serve with tortilla chips.

If desired, combine 1 lb. (16 oz.) Velveeta cheese (cut up) with 1 cup salsa and microwave for 3 minutes. Stir, and microwave for another 2 minutes, or until cheese is melted.
