Description

Instead of using regular canned tomatoes, use jarred roasted red peppers. The roasted peppers give a great, rich flavor and beautiful color.

Ingredients

• 1 cup jarred roasted red peppers, drained
• 1/4 red onion, peeled and chopped
• 1/2 each of a yellow, orange, and green bell pepper
• 1 jalapeno, rough chopped, seeds and all
• 1-2 cloves garlic, chopped
• handful of fresh cilantro leaves, stems removed
• freshly squeezed juice of 2 limes
• 1 t. sherry vinegar
• salt and pepper, to taste

Steps

1. Put drained roasted peppers into a small food processor; pulse about 20 times, until pureed, but still has a slight chunky texture. Pour into a bowl.
2. Process each ingredient separately to get evenly chopped. Pulse red onion until finely chopped; remove to the bowl.
3. Continue this process with the bell peppers, then the jalapeno, garlic, and finally the cilantro. Place all in the bowl.
