Joan’s Winning Salsa Recipe

Happy Saturday everyone!  It’s going to be a BEAUTIFUL day today!  Be sure to head out to the orchard to pick your own raspberries, grab a bag of apples, cider, donuts, and caramel apples.  Also – it’s time to get canning!  I can’t tell you how amazing it is to be able to preserve fresh fruits and veggies to enjoy year round.  I wanted to post the salsa recipe from one of our winner’s at our first Salsa Saturday.  You can come to the orchard and pick your own tomatoes and peppers to use in this great recipe. 

Joan’s Salsa


10 cups tomatoes peeled and quartered
3 1/2 cup chopped onions
2 cups green peppers chopped
3 jalapeno peppers chopped  (more or less depending how hot you like it)
8 cloves garlic minced
1 1/2 cup vinegar
2 Tbs oregano
6 Tbs salt
2 Tbs chili powder
1 1/2 Tbs cummin
16 oz tomato paste
Boil all together except for the tomato paste for 15 minutes.  Add paste and boil for 5 more minutes.


Put into jars and hot water bath for 8 minutes.
This makes 8 pints
