Fresh Salsa

A great way to use up super ripe, meaty tomatoes is to whip up a fresh salsa. I didn't use a recipe for mine and you don't need on either. 

Simply dice or mash the ripe tomatoes, if they're more juicy than meaty you can put them in a colinder, sprinkle them with sea salt and allow them to drain, removing the excess liquid. If they're meaty enough, as mine were, just put them in a bowl and sprinkle with sea salt to release some juices. I then added a diced sweet green pepper, two cloves of diced garlic, chopped cilantro and parsley (a whole bunch since they're both so good for you!) and a healthy pinch of cumin. Add some lime juice and put the whole bowl aside for 15 minutes to an hour before serving or refrigerating.  

You can use all kinds of different seasonings, fruit and vegetables for your salsa. Use shallot or onion instead of garlic, add jalepenos, diffrerent herbs or use tomatillos or ground cherries instead of tomatoes.
