Cabbage Salsa













Ingredients

• 1 bag of Shredded Cabbage
• 1 large Onion, diced
• 1 large Tomato, diced
• 1/2 to 1 full bunch of Cilantro, chopped
• Jalapeno, diced (optional, based on how spicy you would like)
• 1/8 cup Lime Juice
• 1 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Pepper
• 1/2 tsp Garlic Salt

Directions

Chop up cabbage a little smaller than it comes in the bag. Place in a large bowl. Finely dice onion, cilantro and jalapeno and add to the cabbage.

Add in Lime Juice, Salt, Pepper and Garlic Salt. Add more to taste as you desire.

Dice tomato and fold into cabbage. Refrigerate in an airtight container. Stir before serving and add addition salt and pepper to taste.

Serve with Tortilla chips and Enjoy!!

My Notes: I prefer Juanita's Tortilla Chips (Winco & WalMart around here carry them) They taste just like the restaurant ones. I will also wait until shortly before serving to add the diced tomato's if I make ahead of time. I like the freshness it gives the salsa.
