It may sound silly, but one of my favorite dishes to eat when I eat Ethiopian food is this tomato salad. Truth be told, even though Ethiopian food is good for you, it can be very rich!

1/2 small white onion, finely diced
1 jalapeno, seeded and minced
3 roma tomatoes, diced
2 T. freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 T. rice wine vinegar
1 T. extra virgin olive oil
1 t. salt
