Spicy Green Tomato Salsa Recipe

Name: Spicy Green Tomato Salsa Recipe
Total time: 30 mins
Ingredients: 12.5 cups chopped green tomatoes; 2 onions, chopped; 4 jalapeno peppers, sliced into 1/2-inch-thick rings; 4 serrano peppers, sliced into 1/2-inch-thick rings; 1 red bell pepper, cut into chunks; 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro; 0.25 cup raw sugar; 3 tablespoons minced garlic; 2.5 tablespoons chopped fresh oregano; 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper; 6 limes, juiced, divided; 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

This vibrant green tomato salsa bursts with fresh cilantro and zesty lime juice, balanced by a spicy kick from jalapeño and serrano peppers. Serve it over cream cheese with tortilla chips for an easy game-day appetizer, or use it to add zing to your favorite dishes. This recipe is an excellent way to use up green tomatoes, especially after an early frost. I developed this recipe with the help of my daughter-in-law Carolyn and her niece Felicia. Thank you both for your contributions!

Instructions

Prepare all of your ingredients.
In a large bowl, combine the green tomatoes, onions, jalapeño peppers, serrano peppers, and red bell pepper.
In a separate, small bowl, mix together the cilantro, sugar, garlic, oregano, and cayenne pepper.
Add about 2 cups of the tomato mixture, 1 teaspoon of lime juice, and 1/4 of the spice mixture to a blender. Blend to your desired consistency and then pour into a large bowl.
Repeat the blending process with the remaining tomato mixture, lime juice, and spice mixture in batches until all ingredients are blended. Stir in the vinegar.
Divide the salsa into bags and store in the freezer or refrigerator for later use.
