Ingredients

• 6 medium-sized Roma tomatoes
• 2 small (seeded and finely diced) Green chilies
• 1 small (finely minced) Garlic clove
• 0.5 small (finely diced) White onion
• 1 tablespoon Apple cider vinegar
• 0.5 teaspoon (dried) Oregano
• 0.25 teaspoon (ground) Cumin
• 0.25 teaspoon (freshly ground) Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

Wash the Roma tomatoes and green chilies thoroughly under running water.

Step 2

Using a sharp knife, dice the tomatoes into small chunks (leave the skin on) and set aside.

Step 3

Seed the green chilies and dice them finely for a mild spice level. If you prefer more heat, leave the seeds in.

Step 4

In a medium-sized saucepan, heat the water on medium heat and add the minced garlic and diced onion. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until the onions become translucent.

Step 5

Add the diced tomatoes and green chilies into the saucepan. Stir well to combine.

Step 6

Reduce the heat to low and add the apple cider vinegar, oregano, cumin, and black pepper. Stir thoroughly.

Step 7

Cover the saucepan and let the mixture simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

Step 8

Taste the mixture and adjust the seasoning, if needed, to suit your taste. You can add a pinch of salt-free seasoning for extra flavor.

Step 9

Once the mixture has thickened slightly and the flavors have blended, remove it from the heat and let it cool to room temperature.

Step 10

Transfer the Low Sodium Rotel Tomatoes into a sterile glass jar or airtight container. Store in the refrigerator for up to one week or freeze for longer storage.
