6 Roma tomatoes (or about a pound of whatever variety you have on hand)
1 small handful of cilantro
3 green onions
½-1 jalapeno (depending on how spicy you like it!)
½ tsp garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste

Toss all the ingredients in your food processor and give it a whirl! If you prefer chunky salsa, be careful not to over-process it.
Chill in the fridge for ½ hour.
Serve the salsa with chips, on top of tacos, or spooned over scrambled eggs or tofu.

Kick things up a notch and create a dip! Layer cream cheese, this homemade salsa, and shredded cheese on a plate. My kids LOVE this yummy dip!
