Making Salsa


I feel like a pioneer! I bought about 5o pounds of tomatoes for $20 at the farmers market. It was too good of a deal to pass up. Monday, I went to Sherika's right after work. We commenced chopping up all the ingredients. It took a lot of effort. Alicia was also in and out between picking up kids from school. She volunteered to chop the onions, went on a grocery run, and also put all of the tomatoes through the screener. I think she ended up with the worst jobs. We all made a great team! We each made our own batch of salsa. I did a little bit of experimenting adding cilantro-which I love and lime juice. These are the secret ingredients when I make fresh salsa so I figured it would work for canned as well. And it turned out so yummy! Did I mention I love cilantro? At the end of a long days work we each ended up with about 8 cans of salsa. Next time we make it we will have to start earlier and buy more tomatoes so we can have more to show for all of our work. :)
