Comments
Roma tomatoes are one of my favorites for this salsa but it may take a couple more because they are typically a smaller variety. This version is particularly good with chips and can also be served as a topping for eggs, tostadas and soups. It's medium hot but can be "fired-up" if you leave in the jalape o seeds.
