FRUIT & TOMATO SALSA

Fruit & Tomato Salsa image

This is a spicy, fruity salsa . We use it with chips, of course, but it can be a condiment with meat dishes as well. My family and friends eat it by the jar; we love the sweet and spicy combination! It is mild to medium in heat, but it is easy to adjust for taste. You can "cheat " by adding tomato paste to thicken, if too runny.
