Classic Red Table Salsa

Makes about 5 cups

If you cannot find chipotle peppers (dried, smoked jalapeños), you can substitute any minced, fresh chile pepper of your choice.

3 large, very ripe tomatoes (about 2 pounds), diced small
1/2 cup tomato juice
1 small chipotle pepper, minced (about 2 tablespoons)
1 medium red onion, diced small
1 medium garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1/2 cup juice from 4 medium limes
Salt

Mix all ingredients, including salt to taste, in medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate to blend flavors, at least 1 hour or up to 5 days.
