Fresh Tomato Salsa

This is a simple recipe for kids to make. (Moms and Dads: depending on your child’s age, you’ll want to supervise the chopping and dicing.) For a spicy salsa, add a pinch of cayenne pepper, which is ground from a hot red chili pepper. The salsa is great with tortilla chips or cheesy quesadillas.
