Making salsa

With the overwhelming amount of tomatoes being harvested during the past few weeks, a person needs a plan for using them all. Personally speaking, I can't think of a better use than making homemade salsa, which can be enjoyed on college football Saturday's this fall....
Anyway, just as each tomato becomes fully ripe on the counter, they're simply put into the freezer whole, then thawed in a sink filled with water at a later time of my choosing.. I prefer to start the thawing process early on a Saturday morning (like 6 or 7 am), and peel each one late afternoon, and the skin comes right off....

Photo below - the start of the process....

Onions and jalapeno peppers harvested from the garden. Small ones go into making salsa, and the larger ones get used for burgers and such.....



Photo below - canned pinto beans dumped into a collander, the sprayed with the attachment on the sink until all juice and small pieces are removed.....



Photo below - canned whole kernel corn dumped on top, then washed the same way....



Then the diced onions and peppers added.....



I use Mrs. Wages salsa mix, and made a double batch on this day.



The directions on back of the package are followed, and it makes an easy homemade salsa that will be enjoyed by everyone. I'll show a picture of the finished product in the next post, because this stupid Blogger app on my phone won't let me add the picture of it since the others were already loaded......
