Instructions

Prepare the ingredients: Dice the tomatoes, finely chop the yellow onion, and slice the green chilies to your desired spice level. If you prefer a milder salsa, remove the seeds from the chilies before chopping. Roughly chop the fresh cilantro.

Mix together: In a large mixing bowl, combine the tomatoes, onion, green chilies, cilantro, and lime juice. Stir in the red wine vinegar to add a tangy kick.
-
Taste and adjust: Taste your salsa and adjust the seasoning as needed. If you like it spicier, add more green chilies or even a touch of hot sauce. If it needs more acidity, squeeze in a little extra lime juice or a splash of vinegar.
-
Serve: Transfer your salsa to a serving bowl and enjoy immediately with your favorite chips, tacos, or even as a topping for grilled meats. For an even richer flavor, mash in some ripe avocado to make a creamy, irresistible guacamole!
