Tomatoes, Tomatoes EVERYWHERE!

You'd think that I'd planted 20 Roma Tomato plants or something with the multitudes of tomatoes we are picking.  But, really, we only have 2 plants.  Last week I canned 8 jars of spaghetti sauce and yesterday I got 3 jars of salsa canned.  It's amazing that all this started from one small 4 x 4' square garden. With the heat of the southern, summer sun, we aren't getting much of anything else.

It seems as if my energy level has been draining since we've been done doing school.  I just can't seem to get motivated to do much of anything productive.  Anyone else having that problem?  Maybe, it's the heat, which is slowly creeping up into the high 90's again.

Here is by far the best salsa recipe I've used.  It doesn't have any catchy name, so feel free to leave me name suggestions in a comment.

_____________________ Salsa

  • 8 - 12 Roma Tomatoes
  • 1 Green Pepper
  • 1 Medium Red Onion
  • 1 Jalapeno Pepper (optional)
  • 1 - 2 cloves Garlic
  • 1/2 c fresh Cilantro
  • 1 TBSP Lime Juice
  • 1 tsp Salt

Grind vegetables altogether in a food processor, then add in the lime juice and salt.  The longer the salsa sits, the hotter it gets!

Blessings,

Michelle
