Salsa Picante Roja

If you don't follow Gina's Skinny Recipes then you are truly missing out.
Big time missing out.

I made her Salsa Picante Roja recently.
Cold jarred salsa gets old and boring.
Except to my 2 1/2 year old.
I love roasted salsas.
This was super easy and light.


What you need:
3 medium tomatoes, cored and quartered. I buy local farmer's vine tomatoes.
1 jalapeno, stemmed removed and roasted.
3-4 small cloves garlic.
2 tsp cilantro. (The least expensive way to have tons of cilantro is to buy the plant and grow it!)
3-4 Tbsp water.
1 tsp olive oil.
Salt to taste.

What you do:
Add tomatoes, jalapeno, garlic, cilantro and water and pulse a few times in a blender until completely smooth.
Add oil to a deep skillet, then pour in tomatoes. Season with salt and simmer uncovered stirring occasionally, 25 minutes.
