Tasty Tuesday! Col K's Sassy and Yummy Salsa

Col K's Sassy and Yummy Salsa finale

What a refreshing, thick and tasty salsa. We had it with a few chips and a glass of wine on the deck at the end of a busy day and it helped cool us off!  As a follow on, we had a 6 year old grandson's birthday party and knew it would be a hit!

Be sure to chill for at least an hour after putting together! Easy to make; place ingredients in a mixing bowl and if wanted you can transfer to a nice dish later. Many of our items were fresh from the garden including the herbs or local farmer’s market! It is so nice to have that option.

• Four cups of canned tomatoes (We canned them and they were great)
• 1 cup finely diced onion

Garden fresh vegetables and herbs

• Ten mild jalapeno peppers, finely chopped (we used mild but this can be according to your taste)
• Four banana peppers
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 4 teaspoons lime juice
• 1 cup pealed and seeded cucumber
• 4 teaspoons garlic
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon dried parsley
• 1/2 teaspoon oregano
