I got this salsa recipe from my sister, and my children and I have been making batches of it ever since. We pair pint jars with packages of tortilla chips for zesty Christmas gifts. When the kids give this present to their teachers, they can truly say they helped make it.

My family can't get enough of this salsa! It is absolutely the best salsa ever. Maybe it is the fresh tomatoes, anyhow it is full of flavor. I plan on canning all my tomatoes into salsa next year and we have a huge garden. Thankyou for the recipe.

My family loves this recipe.I have canned this salsa several times.This is the best salsa I have tasted. Thank you for sharing it. I will not be buying store bought salsa again. One thing I did was reduce the sugar to half it was a little sweet,but I test it each time starting with a 1/4 of a cup. Thanks again.

This is the best salsa I've ever made. I added a drained black beans to the tomato mixture right before processing. I've told several of my friends about this recipe too.
I made this salsa and it's excellent. I've told my daughter and several friends about this recipe. I added a can of black beans. I drained them first, and right before I was ready to pack the jars, I added it into the tomato sause mixture and processed like specified.

Tried this recipe for the first time and was so very thrilled with the outcome. It is a bit of work as we cut all the veggies up by hand. But well worth it. We doubled the batch and got 21 pints and a bowl for the fridge from it. YUMMMY

We love this salsa!! I made some last summer and it wasn't enough! So this year I've already made two batches and plan on making several more if I have enough tomatoes. Even my 5 year old daughter loves this stuff.
