INGREDIENTS

1 large ripe and juicy heirloom tomato or 2 medium-sized tomatoes

1-2 spicy fresh green chili pepper, spicy yellow chili pepper, or a few fresh Hawaiian chili peppers, adjust amount of chili peppers to your liking

After pulsing, add in the green haole koa seeds and just give it a good stir. Adjust salt as needed.
