This recipe was originally submitted by Mean Chef (IHHDRO). I adopted it after he left the site. My comments in my original review stated, "Although I didn't find this recipe here, I have made this salsa for several years. Due to variations of ingredients on hand, I sometimes make changes (and/or additions). However, this is a very good base recipe for fresh salsa. There is no need to change it; but we all like a little variety now and then." I am the designated salsa-maker among my friends, and this recipe never disappoints.

Use serrano chiles, jalapeņos don't have enough flavor or heat. Skipped the olive oil, it's never used in Mexico. Didn't see the need for the lime juice, either.

This salsa is absolutely fabulous! Very easy to make and everyone loved it. I made it mild this time (only used 3 jalapeno peppers) but next time I will spice it up a bit more. Great recipe, Mean. This will be made over and over again in this household! Thanks!
