- 2 roma tomatoes
- 4 small tomatillos, husks removed and cleaned
- 2 cloves garlic
- ½ cup yellow onion, chopped

Remove from heat, strain and discard the water, place everything into a blender and pulse the blender to chop everything up, smooth but chunky.

Notes
No blender jar handy? A food processor or immersion blender will work just as well.
