One of my favorite ingredients to add to any of my salsas, is canned diced green chiles. They add a lot of flavor, but not a lot of spice. Cherry tomatoes are always sweet and they work so well in this salsa and the tang of the lime juice balances all the sweet ingredients.
Chipotle restaurants have it right with their corn salsa with fresh flavors of lime, red onion and cilantro. I never eat their food without the their corn salsa, whatever dish I’m eating. My recipe is a little different, but just as sweet and flavorful.
Optional additions
