Midnight Salsa

As a pre-teen/teen, one of my summertime rituals was to stay up later than anyone else and sneak into the garden after dark to pick ingredients for a late night salsa snack. Usually this snack was enjoyed while watching Dirty Dancing and/or Jack Horkheimer's "The Star Hustler" (later to be called "Star Gazer").

1 huge, ripe, juicy, flavorful tomato
1 fresh Jalapeno
1 small onion
salt
I don't think I liked Cilantro then, or we didn't grow it, but I might add some now if it hasn't all gone to seed by this point in the summer.

Chop everything into a bowl, mix and eat with tortilla chips. Commence watching the movie Dirty Dancing and "Keep Looking Up."
