tomatoes and salsa
Like everyone else, I have an abundance of tomatoes. Fortunately, the blight has not hit my plants yet this year. How cute is this little red colander? It was a birthday gift from my daughter. She picked up on my fondness for it when we were at T. J. Maxx.
Along with all my tomatoes, I picked a bunch of green peppers and got some huge bulbs of garlic from my Dad. I was also given a bag of onions and I had some leftover corn on the cob. Put all those together and what do you get? SALSA!!
I cut everything up and put it in my crockpot, set it on low and let it simmer for about 4 hours. After it cooled down, I strained off most of the juice (which I made vegetable/hamburger soup with) and froze my salsa to enjoy this winter. For now - I will eat fresh, uncooked salsa!

What a neat way of making salsa. We just make it fresh here but have a hard time eating it all. One more reason I need to get my hands on a crock pot.
ReplyDeleteBonnie that looks so yummy.
ReplyDeleteTO answer your question about my anemones. Yes they do spread a lot and I have to pull many plants up every spring to keep them in one spot. They are so pretty that I do not mind the extra work.
Have a wonderful week.
What a delicious looking salsa! I like that you froze it, too.
