– 1/2 medium yellow onion, cut into quarters – 4 ripe roma tomatoes, halved – 1 jalapeno (or chipotle) pepper, halved (seeds removed if you like a mild salsa) – 3 cloves of garlic, peeled – 1 tbsp of brown sugar (or agave or maple syrup) – 1/2 tsp of salt – 1 tsp of apple cider vinegar (or white vinegar or lime juice) – 1/4 C of fresh cilantro, coarsely chopped
Heat oven or grill to medium high heat (if oven, 425 degrees). Prepare all veggies and lay them on aluminum foil (on top of baking tray, if you're worried about juice dripping from tomatoes). Cook undisturbed for 10-15 minutes until veggies are starting to brown.
