Ingredients
  

For the salsa
  • 4 units tomatoes, quartered
  • 1 unit onion, cut into wedges
  • 2 cloves garlic, unpeeled
  • 1-2 units jalapeño peppers, halved adjust based on spice preference
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 1 unit lime, juice
  • to taste units salt

Method
 

Cooking Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the quartered tomatoes, onion wedges, and unpeeled garlic on a baking sheet. Add the halved jalapeño peppers.
  2. Lightly drizzle the vegetables with olive oil and sprinkle with salt, tossing them until well-coated.
  3. Roast the vegetables for about 20 minutes or until the tomatoes are blistered and slightly caramelized. The garlic should be soft and ready to pop out of its skin.
  4. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the veggies cool slightly. In a blender or food processor, combine the roasted ingredients, including the garlic (peel it first), fresh cilantro, lime juice, and additional salt to taste.
  5. Blend until you reach your desired salsa texture—smooth or chunky, it’s up to you!
  6. Give it a taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more lime juice or salt as preferred.
  7. Your Delicious Roasted Salsa is now ready to be enjoyed right away or stored for later!

Notes

Store your salsa in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. To freeze, transfer to a freezer-safe container, and it will last for about 3 months. When ready to enjoy, simply thaw in the refrigerator overnight or on the counter for a few hours.
