8. Roasted Salsa
On a baking sheet, spread tomatoes, garlic, onion and jalepenos, and toss in the a bit of oil. Keep the garlic unpeeled.
Broil on high until there is some nice char on the outsides of everything, then flip to get the other side.
When charred, remove the garlic skins and add everything to a blender, along with all the other ingredients. Blend until it is your desired texture. Add salt to taste.
This will taste even better after being refrigerated for a few hours.
