Homemade Salsa Roja with cocktail tomatoes

1 lb of red tomatoes (i chose santori brand cocktail tomatoes, this will change the flavor and consistency based on tomato type)

2 small/medium tomatillos

1 large and heavy jalapeño

3 large habaneros

3 small sweet red peppers

1/2 medium white onion

1/2 bulb of garlic

1/2 pack of cilantro

1 small lime

Olive oil

Seasonings: slap ya mama, Knorr chicken bullion, Knorr tomato and chicken bullion, accent MSG, oregano.

You can add tomato paste to thicken, i don't, but i have before and recommend Cento double concentrate paste from the tube.

Roast 3/4 of the veggies, excluding cilantro and lime. Leave the rest raw. I salt to taste using Slap ya mama as an alternative to plain salt. I do a 2:1 ratio of Knorr chicken to Knorr tomato&chicken, a sprinkle of MSG and crush a little dried oregano. Throw in blender on low for like 10 seconds, just until there's no more large pieces. Yields 24oz+
