Amy's Fresh Salsa

hotdish's Note:

This is a great salsa that you can make ahead of time and do not have to cook. It is an especially great summer recipe when you have a garden and is a must at all my familys parties! To make this, i used the little blender that came with my emersion blender, but if you dont have one you can use a small food processor. The salt will draw moisture out of the tomatoes, so if it bothers you you can drain it, but i dont bother.
