Homemade Salsa Verde

Ingredients (7)

• 1 1/2 pounds tomatillos (about 12 medium), husked and rinsed

• 1/2 cup chopped white onion (about 1/2 medium onion)
• 1/4 cup packed fresh cilantro leaves (more if you love cilantro)
• 2 tablespoons to 1/4 cup lime juice (1 to 2 medium limes, juiced), to taste
• 1/2 to 1 teaspoon salt, to taste
• Optional variation: 1 to 2 diced avocados, for creamy avocado salsa verde
