This is a great recipe that one of our coaching clients, Karla, sent to us. I loved it so much that I wanted to share it with you guys here on the blog. Hope you enjoy!
Salsa:
- 20 to 24 medium to large tomatoes, chop
- 5 stocks of celery, dice
- 3-6 large Green peppers, chop
- 3-6 large Red Peppers, chop
- 3 – Large onions, dice
- 1/4 tsp. Ginger
- 3 whole garlic cloves or 3 tsp. garlic power
- 6 to 8 red chili peppers or 6 tsp of chopped red peppers, jalapeno peppers, I prefer the Jalapenos and I add the crushed red pepper (6 tbsp. Spoons that they use on pizzas.) (Add more if you prefer it hotter)
- ¼ cup of diced parsley
- 1-Tbsp sugar and salt to tasteyou desire…I use one tsp. salt canning only do not use iodized.
