this is what I do. I get as many tomatoes as you think you'll need. I usually hollow them out a little bit to get rid of some of the juices ( i don't like juicy salsa). I'll then mince a few cloves of garlic and about half an onion (although it's all subjective to how much you are serving). I'll also usually fire roast some corn and then chop it off the cob and ad it in (you can use canned corn too). I also dice up a few jalapeno's, and an advocado into cubes for a little extra kick. I sometimes add a little bit of lime juice. Use a little salt to taste and viola, you got a good salsa.
Also check out foodtv.com they have quite a few good salsa recipes i've tried

Salsa is pretty personal, but I start with:
Two to three tomatos, peeled and minced with the runny pulp and seeds removed. (Drop the tomato into boiling water for no more than ten seconds: the skin will peel right off. Cut the tomatos in half and get the runny portion out with a spoon or fingers, then salt them and place them on paper towels to continue to leach moisture out)
One cucumber, peeled and minced, and with the seeds removed,
one can of V8 Juice.
After that, you can do with this what you want, including minced garlic, roasted garlic, shallots, onions, Jalapeno peppers, cilantro, chipolte, cayenne, etc.
let the flavors marry for a couple of hours.

Salsa/Guacamole
In a blender put:
- 3 or 4 tomatillos (canned is fine)
- 1 small onion (golf ball sized)
- 3 or 4 cloves garlic
- 2 jalapenos is perky, 3 is nice and spicy
- handful fresh cilantro
- meat of 3 avocados
- salt to taste
Blend - I like to just pulse it together so its not a paste. A squirt of lime juice
will keep the avocado from turning brown.

I don't have a Ferrari in
I was gonna go crazy until Jock finally mentioned cilantro.
I like my salsa really chunky for dipping but I am in love with the salsa verde from a local mexican restaurant (liquidy).

Creepy guy in the mirror.
I like fresh salsa... Hand chopped, no food processor, never cooked.
I use roma, or plum tomatoes - they seem to be best. About 6 or 7
A medium onion
For a bit of extra heat and color I add a bit of red onion
2 or 3 Jalepenos - I remove about half the seeds. (modify to your taste)
2 cloves garlic, minced
Handful of cilantro
Juice of one lime.
Chop it all up as finely as possible by hand. If you want to reduce the amount of juice, drop each item into a strainer immediately after cutting to allow the juice to drain. Add lime juice and serve immediately. If you dont use it all dont store more than 3 days before eating
It wont taste like the salsa you are used to - it will taste like the salsa in Mexico...
