I was wondering if anyone would be willing to share the salsa recipe? I planted in my garden everything I thought would be good in salsa. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

home grown tomatoes and Mrs. Wages seasoning mix. Then add brown sugar to it. My friends and family can't get enough of it. I also add my own onions to it.

not to derail the thread - but is anyone eating their heirlooms yet? We're a few days away from finally getting the first to ripen. I have 3 lbs of bacon ready to go.

my roma tomaters are getting big. Only two bell pepper plants produced which is kind of a bummer. Serano peppers are pretty small and the habs and jelapenos are pretty far behind as I didn't get them started soon enough. Just replanted some cilantro so it'll be ready in a couple weeks. I'll just add in store bought onions. Still undecided on what way I will make the salsa.

about 10% of our roma's are raging red already - but they are up against a south-facing brick wall. Man do tomatoes love conditions like that. Thinking that's where the heirlooms need to go next year.

Salsa is the number one selling condiment in America.

My yards trees have matured to the point of my garden not getting but an hour or so of daylight a day. I think my 10 year gardening stretch has come to a sad ending.
Our garden looks quite sad, and the plants are not much more than sprouts. Either the trees go, or the garden. I guess we can buy the ingredient's and still make our world famous salsa.

We use only ingredient's from our garden, mrs johnr is a culinary type, and can absolutely make the best salsa, and if you want hot, she makes a batch of that too. My involvement is the blanching of the tomato's, and dicing onions, she handles all the rest. So I have no recipe for you lunky, and mrs johnr doesn't share, she's stingy like that...

you see in the area in which I live getting a good bit of trees to grow, and actually maintain is a blessing, so the whacking of trees is out, I could maybe move the garden to the front yard where its a bit sunnier.

Did you plant bacon bit seed ? I planted a short row real early but they must have froze.

This is what happens at my house too with the exception of using white sugar. Only bad thing about it is I can't eat to much of it a one sitting because I'm diabetic.

Mrs johnr uses vinegar sometimes or lemon juice, just a bit of either to maintain it while it is on the shelf for upto a year or more, depending on garden growth and my kids sneaking jars outa the house to their own houses

Looking good Lunker, The only thing that can keep you from making salsa now are Deer,hail,cows, heavy rain with big wind, Goats, pigs and horses and those tines on the garden tool sticking up. Haha Shorebound, I didn't realize there really was such a thing as bacon seeds
