Need a good salsa recipe

[star_fruit]

I love salsa and i'm looking for a salsa recipe that tastes like the salsa you get at mexican restaurants. I've made salsa before but it didn't taste like the ones i eat at restaurants. So does anybody have a good salsa recipe that you won't mind sharing with me?

I dont have a specific recipe, I just throw together
roma tomatoes
green peppers
onions
jalapeno pepper (optional)
cilantro
cumin
seasalt
juice of limes

I pulse my peppers, onion, jalapeno and cilantro first
then add the rest and blend.

Tomato Salsa
4 cups tomato
3 jalapeno peppers, seeds removed
3 garlic cloves, minced fine
1 onion
juice from 2 limes
2 teaspoons Celtic Sea Salt*
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 cup sun-dried tomatoes soaked in warm water
? Cilantro leaves, whole
? Basil Leaves
½ a red and yellow bell pepper, seeded
Place the tomato in a food processor and chop into small pieces, set aside in a bowl.

Put the jalapenos, garlic, onion, lime juice, salt, cumin, chili powder and your desired amount of cilantro & basil into the food processor and chop until very fine. Pour this mixture into the bowl with the tomato.
Next, chop the peppers in the food processor until fine and put them in the bowl with the tomato.

Finally, put the sun-dried tomato into the food processor and process until it’s smooth like tomato paste. Then mix this paste with the salsa in the bowl. Flavors are best if they’ve blended for a few hours


Mild Salsa

Pulse to desired consistency:
2 cloves garlic, minced
Juice of 1 lemon
Cilantro to taste
½ sweet onion, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped

Add and pulse: Ripe tomato, chopped

Thank you Sport and Jen for replying back! Sport your recipe sounds really really good. I was wondering how I could use sun dried tomatoes to mimic the tomato paste in recipes. Thanks for the help.

I think that would be the better way to do it.
