Cup. (You may have to cut the tomatoes a bit, depending on the size you
choose.)

When you pour your fresh salsa in a bowl, you may notice the
power of the Magic Bullet has made it a little foamy. Don't panic
— the foam is actually tiny air bubbles that go away after a few
minutes. If it bothers you, lay a paper towel down on top of the salsa and
gently blot ... no more foam. Also, when you make salsa with a knife,
you typically seed the tomatoes first. Since we're throwing the tomatoes
in whole, there may be more juice than you're used to. If so, just twist on
the Shaker/Steamer Top and strain out some of the extra liquid.
Serve your salsa with tortilla chips, slices of Italian bread, or as
a dip for triangles of quesadilla (see recipe Page 45).
Chunkier Salsa
For even chunkier salsa, after you're done Pulsing, stir in some
canned (drained) black beans and a bit of canned corn — a
fiesta for the taste buds!

Tall Cup.

blend until smooth.
Then ...
Salt and pepper to taste.
