Mi Casa Salsa (From Costa Mesa Restraunt) - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 (14 1/2 ounce) cans diced tomatoes (Use petite diced for at least 1 can)
    1 -2 jalapeno (more or less depending on how hot you like it.)
    3/4 cup onion, chopped
    2 -3 garlic cloves, minced
    1/2 teaspoon cumin
    1/4 teaspoon sugar
    1/2 - 3/4 teaspoon garlic salt
    1/4 - 1/2 cup lime juice
    1/4 teaspoon pepper
    1/2 cup diced fresh cilantro
Preparation
    In a blender or food processor place jalepenos and 1/2 cup onions. Blend for a few seconds. Add 2 cans of the tomatoes (save the petite diced), cumin, sugar, garlic salt, lime juice, pepper. Process until ingredients are mixed well. Add cilantro a bit at a time until the desired taste is achieved. I always end up adding a bit more of garlic salt, pepper or lime juice, depending on my tastes for the day. Pour from blender into a bowl and add the other can of tomatoes and the rest of the onion. You can add more onion or even some green peppers if you like. Chill for a few hours.
