i can pass along my salsa fresca recipe, if you like. it's a chunky salsa but you can also put it all in a food processor and make it smoother.

2 large or 6 small tomatoes, diced into small cubes
1 medium onion, diced into small cubes or 4 to 6 green onions (scallions), chopped
1 or 2 cloves of garlic, chopped fine
1 jalapeno, chopped fine (seeds removed if you don't want it too spicy)
2 tablespoons of chopped cilantro
juice of half a lime, no seeds

mix all ingredients in a medium bowl. refrigerate overnight to let flavors mix. enjoy.
