The last Garden Harvest of the season .... till next year delicious tomatoes :(

HOLY GREEN TOMATOES BATMAN! 



The last harvest of the season always makes me sad. I love having herbs and veggies handy to pick and use. Buying those bland tasteless tomatoes at the grocery makes me sad. I usually store a portion of my green tomatoes till they ripen and make a delightful Green Tomato Salsa with the rest. I have been meaning to make a large batch for weeks but have been slacking. This baby I am gestating is sucking the energy out of me :( ! 

Ingredients

  • 5 lbs green tomato (chopped small as you prefer for salsa)
  • yellow onion (chopped 4 cups)
  • jalapenos (chopped with seeds 12 cup)
  • red bell peppers (chopped 2 cups)
  • garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1 cup fresh cilantro (chopped)
  • 1 cup juices (lime)
  • 12 cup vinegar
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 12 tbsp cumin
  • 1 tbsp dried oregano (leaves)
  • 2 tsps pepper
  • 14 tsp cayenne (optional to taste)
  • 12 tsps sugar


This is a link a recipe very similar to the one that I use:



I will add the photos once I get off my lazy butt and make it, hopefully this weekend 

What do you do with your green tomatoes?
