Jalapeno Salsa

Servings:  About 2 cups 

<i>This salsa is moderately hot--use half bell pepper and half jalapeno to "cool" it down if you like.</i>

   1      Tbsp          olive oil
     3/4  C             jalapenos,chopped
   2                    garlic cloves, minced
     1/4  C             onion, chopped
   3      C             tomato, seeded, peeled, and chopped
   1      Tbsp          red wine vinegar
   1      Tbsp          fresh cilantro, chopped
   1      tbsp          green olives, chopped
                        salt

In med. sized skillet, heat the oil.  Add the jalapenos, garlic and onion.  Saute until the onion is soft, but not browned, 3-5 min.  Add the tomatoes and cook until the tomatoes are quite soft, about 5 min.  Add the remaining ingredients and cook for a few minutes more to give the flavors a chance to "marry".  Add salt to taste if needed.  Let the salsa stand for at least 30 min.  Stir well before serving.
