Calories 16 kcal
- 2 - 14.5 oz cans petite cut tomatoes
- 1 large green bell pepper finely cut up or chopped
- 7 green onions Sliced and chopped.
- 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- 1/2 tsp coarse black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic salt
- 1 canned pickled jalapeno
- 2 Tbsp of the juice from the marinated jalapeno's
Drain canned tomatoes.
In a food processor or blender process the tomatoes for about 5 - 10 seconds per can. Just enough so they are no longer diced but, crushed. You want the tomatoes to still be chunky! Careful not to over process.
Place the processed tomatoes into a large bowl, leaving a tiny bit of the tomato in the processor.
Add the seeded jalapeño and process till the mixture is like soup! Add the jalapeño mixture to the tomatoes.
Next add in the diced green bell pepper, sliced green onions, and chopped cilantro.
Add in the coarse black pepper and garlic salt. Stir. Add in the tablespoon of juice from the canned jalapeño.
Mix again until well blended. Cover and let refrigerate for one hour. Serve with fresh corn chips or on top of any of your favorite Mexican dishes. Will hold for one week.
