Step 4

Roughly chop the fresh cilantro leaves, removing any large stems, and add it to the bowl.

Step 5

Juice the lime and pour the fresh lime juice over the chopped vegetables.

Step 6

Peel and mince the garlic clove, then add it to the mixture.

Step 7

Season the salsa with salt, ground black pepper, and cumin powder.

Step 8

Mix all the ingredients together until they are well combined.

Step 9

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the salsa to an airtight container and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Serve your fresh, low carb salsa with your favorite low carb tortillas, keto-friendly chips, or as a topping on your favorite dishes.
