Homemade Salsa, Cheaper than Store-Bought

One of my favorite meals is tacos and the most delicious thing on said tacos is homemade tomato salsa. Mmm our five tomato plants have blossoms which means soon this salsa will be with garden tomatoes! For now we make it with store-bought tomatoes but garden fresh cilantro.

Total cost for the salsa was under $3.00 and it makes a big bowl full.

• Roma tomatoes ($0.88/lb) = $1.20
• Green pepper = $0.79 (only used half)
• Sweet onion = $0.51
• Plus a few cents for things on hand: garlic cloves, salt, pepper and Tabasco (the latter purchased with a doubler coupon of course).

 The finished product looks like this and doesn't last long!

Ta-da! Perfect with tortilla chips or on tacos!
