Fermented Salsa

This has great flavor and is wonderful for your gut, as well.  As a probiotic food, it adds good bacteria to your intestinal tract and helps battle gut flora imbalances.  Using produce from your own garden or a local
organic farmer's market is ideal.

8 Roma tomatoes
1 large green pepper (if you like hot salsa, feel free to use hot peppers instead)
6 cloves of garlic, minced
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup lemon/lime juice
1/4 cup whey
2 teaspoons sea salt

Peel the tomatoes by dipping them in boiling water and slipping the skins off.
Dice the tomatoes.
Mix the tomatoes, onions and garlic together and put into a quart jar.   Press down gently with a wooden meat hammer, or tap gently on a towel folded on the counter top to get the contents condensed in the jar. Fill only to within an inch of the top.
Add the salt to the top of the jar, then pour the whey and lemon/lime juice over the mixture.
If necessary, add enough filtered or well water to cover the tomato mixture.

Cover tightly with a canning lid and keep at room temperature for about 2 days before transferring to the fridge.
