This can be added under the section for people that set off smoke alarms if they try to cook with anything but a microwave ... yes, like me ...

21ST CENTURY SALSA

1 green jalapeno pepper
1 yellow jalapeno pepper
1 lrg can of skinned tomatoes
1 handful of cilantro
4 green onion stalks
couple shakes of salt

- Slice the tops off the peppers.

- Put the peppers in a bowl of water, stick them in the micro and boil until standing next to the microwave makes you cough and choke from the fumes.

(In this way, by judging your physical reaction, even just having watery eyes, you'll know if your peppers are duds, and your salsa won't be very good, or if they're fresh and flavorful and it will kick a**.)

- Take the peppers out of the water and put um in a blender with all the other ingredients.

- Blend until smooth to mix the flavors.

Serve in your "No Double Dipping" chips and salsa bowl, and Enjoy!

This recipe was given to me by a friend who was Mexican. It is authentic - notice no black pepper in it - getting its heat from the peppers.
