TOMATO FREEZER SALSA



Tomato Freezer Salsa image

An easy way to always have salsa on hand - no canning required. You control the heat by changing the type and amount of hot peppers. The 8 jalapeno's called for in this recipe keep things sane. Introduce some cayenne peppers to increase the heat, some chipotle peppers for smoky tones and some habaneros, scotch bonnets or ghost peppers for insane heat. What's your preference?
