Super Salsa

I'm posting a recipe that I just created (yes, I made up a recipe! Something that I always assumed would be far beyond my level of cooking achievement). Honestly, I only made it because we ran out of jarred salsa the other day and haven't made it to the grocery store yet to buy more... and I just really wanted some salsa while we watched Battlestar Galactica!

This is a pretty simple tomato-based salsa using ingredients that I pulled out of my pantry, but would be just as easy and yummy with fresh ingredients.  I've made homemade salsa before, but NEVER had it taste this good (maybe I'm slightly biased due to such an intense hankering for salsa.  Hmmm...)

In a food processor, I mixed:

1 can of diced tomatoes, with juice
1/4-1/3 small can of diced jalapenos, depending on how spicy you want it to be
1/2 a small onion, chopped (sweet yellow are my fave)
3 cloves of garlic, chopped
splash of lemon juice
salt and pepper to taste
chili powder to taste (I estimate I used a bit more than a teaspoon, but I love chili powder)
cumin to taste (probably less than a teaspoon)

If you give this a try, let me know what you think!
Update: Don't eat the whole batch in one sitting.  Trust me, your tummy will hurt.
