Peppy Salsa...you Choose the Heat! image

This is the salsa recipe I have been using for years. Simple and versatile because you can choose how hot you want to make it. It was given to me by a dear friend, but I think it is originally a Jean Pare recipe. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do! We will never buy salsa again...you may not either.
