    First time making a salsa from scratch. I cooked only the tomatoes and didn't use any paste. I added about 5 slices pickled jalapenos and 1 cup cilantro. Tasted a little limey alone but actually liked it much better with tortilla chips. Can't wait to try it on my hummus, rice and bean burrito. - 3/12/13
