Number Of Ingredients 11

5 to 7 lb ripe tomatoes, i use cherry tomatoes,too
1 Tbsp garlic powder
1/8 c lemon juice
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cayenne peper
1 tsp ground cumin
1 red onion, chopped
1 white onion, chopped
1 yellow onion, chopped
1/3 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped, no stems
few jalapeno peppers, chopped, amt. of seeds used depends on desired hotness

Steps:

1. Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Put tomatoes into water for approx. 1 minute to loosen skins. I don't put cherry tomatoes in water since they are small. Drain tomatoes, peel and crush. Chop cherry tomatoes in half.
2. Mix all crushed and chopped tomatoes, garlic powder, lemon juice, salt, cayenne pepper and cumin into a large pot. Whip to desired thickness. Bring to a boil. Add red, white, and yellow onions, jalapeno pepper and cilantro. Continue boiling, uncovered,slowly until vegetables are soft and mixture has reached desired consistency, about an hour. Remove from heat.
3. Let cool and place 1 to 2 cups of salsa in quart size freezer bags. Lay bags flat and release any air in them and freeze flat.
