Restaurant-Style Salsa

This is exactly like the salsa you get at most Tex-Mex restaurants around here. It's very easy to make, and hard to stop eating.


Some restaurants use more tomato, some use less. Just depends on how thick they want it. This makes a really big batch, but it sizes down easily.
