CHUNKY TOMATO SALSA
I thought this was pretty good until I brought it to a family gathering and my brother and sister stood over it and ate it all, they thought it was great. I'm asked to bring it to all family gatherings. My brother grows the most beautiful organic tomatoes, so I use his whenever I can. During the winter I use canned petite diced tomatoes. I leave the skin on my tomatoes and keep the seeds in. I hand chop everything.

CHUNKY TOMATO SALSA
This salsa has a very nice flavor & isn't too hot if you omit the jalapeno seeds. It's great for using fresh veggies from the garden but can easily be scaled down to accommodate non-gardeners. A food processor makes quick work of the chopping, but be careful not to overprocess or you'll end up with mushy veggies. Wear gloves when handling the hot peppers.
