It takes just a few minutes to make this homemade salsa that tastes just like it came from your favorite Mexican restaurant. The chopped parsley in this recipe gives it a unique flavor. If you like a little heat in your salsa, add a few chopped jalapeño peppers. Cut out the seeds and the membranes so that the flavor of the jalapeños won't be overpowering. You can also serve this hearty condiment with a variety of other grilled meats such as pork tenderloin or chicken. Serve this delicious, colorful dish with steamed pea pods for a complete meal.
