SALSA BABY!!

This is my mother in law's salsa recipe which is so good!  She used to can hers every summer and send a bunch up to us. However she had to sell her house 2 years ago and since then we've missed the salsa. She always grew the ingredients and didn't see the need to buy them now that her garden was gone. So I'm passing it on...just like her enchiladas and pico de gallo. It smelled up the kitchen and made me crave some serious mexican food.

And yet I paid dearly for this colorful mixture of veggies and spices. I made the STUPID mistake of cutting 1/2 pound of jalapenos without gloves! NEVER AGAIN! My hands burned so bad for hours I thought I was gonna go crazy.

Just so you know...no matter what google tells you Elmer's glue doesn't help it seems to trap the heat worse LOL! Ice made my hands burn worse, water only helped when it was colding and constantly running, milk was the best, but luckily my hands are finally burn free..a little tender and I learned a huge lesson: ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES...you aren't too tough to go without! Believe me!
