Easy, blender salsa

This is such a quick, easy, fresh tasting side dish to bring to all the holiday parties coming up soon. It makes a lot, but almost always is gone by the end of a party.

2 cans Rotel tomatoes (check to see how spicy the cans you are buying, I usually use one mild and one medium for some added spice)
1 can stewed tomatoes
garlic powder to taste
salt to taste
juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 bunch of cilantro, chopped
1/2 onion, chopped

Put tomatoes in the blender and blend for a few seconds. Add the garlic powder, salt and lemon juice, blend for another few seconds. Add the cilantro and onion, blend until it reaches the consistency that you desire. Refrigerate at least a half an hour before serving.
