2 14 1/2 oz cans of DelMonte Organic Diced tomatoes
1 clove garlic minced
1/4 yellow onion chopped
1 jalapeno seeded and minced
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup of chopped cilantro (optional)
In a food processor or blender puree one can of tomatoes. Add all ingredients, except cilantro to a heavy 2 quart pot and cook over medium to low heat for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cooking longer makes the salsa thicker.
When salsa has cooled to about 100 degrees add cilantro. Serve at room temperature.
Note: If you want hotter salsa add another jalapeno. Jalapenos vary greatly in hotness. The only way to tell how hot they are is to taste them before cooking.
