MILD TOMATO SALSA



Mild Tomato Salsa image

I got this salsa recipe from my sister, and my children and I have been making batches of it ever since. We pair pint jars with packages of tortilla chips for zesty Christmas gifts. When the kids give this present to their teachers, they can truthfully say they helped make it. -Pamela Lundstrum, Bird Island, Minnesota

Since I was a Fire Chief in Tucson, I made this recipe for my wife and girls. It was always well liked at Fire Dept. functions. This is NOT a hot and spicy salsa. Now that I am retired, my girls still request it for their parties. Enjoy!
