Camping For Foodies Appetizer Camping Recipes: This Sweet Onion Salsa Recipe is a fresh, fast & simple homemade salsa

3 medium tomatoes chopped in about 1/4 inch pieces
1/4 small sweet onion finely chopped (see Note 1)
1 clove garlic finely minced (if the garlic clove is small or you really like garlic, use two cloves)
2 green onions cut in thin slices
1 bunch of cilantro remove stems and chop the green tops
1 jalapeno pepper ribs and seeds removed, finely chopped (NOTE: heat levels of jalapeños vary so test first and adjust to your taste, if you don't want any heat substitute green pepper)
Lemon juice juice of one lemon or lime
Kosher salt and black pepper to taste
Serve with your favorite tortilla chips

You can either chop all of the ingredients by hand or you can use a salsa maker. Using a knife produces a chunkier texture, a salsa maker produces a more finely chopped, jucier texture.
Mix prepared ingredients in a medium bowl and keep in refrigerator until ready to serve.
If using a hand-crank salsa maker, you may have too much liquid in the end product. Drain excess liquid to your desired consistency.
Transfer to a serving bowl and serve with your favorite tortilla chips.

If you're using a hand-crank salsa maker (instead of chopping by hand) you'll need to cut the onion wedge into smaller chunks so it is chopped down before the softer ingredients get pulverized.
