TOMATO SALSA WITHOUT ONIONS
My mother-in-law loves Tex-Mex but has an onion allergy. After several attempts, I invented an authentic tasting salsa that derives some of it's smokey flavor from the roasted pepper. I've taken to roasting the peppers in bulk so I can always have some on hand.

Tips:
- Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will greatly impact the taste of your salsa. Look for tomatoes that are deep red in color and have a slightly sweet aroma.
- Use a variety of tomatoes: Using a mix of different types of tomatoes, such as Roma, cherry, and heirloom, can add depth and complexity to your salsa.
- Roast your tomatoes: Roasting tomatoes intensifies their flavor and gives them a smoky sweetness. You can roast tomatoes in the oven or on the grill.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as cilantro, basil, and oregano, add a burst of flavor to salsa. Be sure to use fresh herbs, as dried herbs will not provide the same flavor.
- Add a bit of heat: If you like spicy salsa, you can add a bit of heat with chili peppers or cayenne pepper. Start with a small amount and gradually increase it to taste.
- Let your salsa chill: Salsa tastes best when it has had time to chill and the flavors have had a chance to meld. Make your salsa ahead of time and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
