In reply to anita. I made some your recipe without the tinned tomatoes as suggested, but toasted the vegetables on my gas stove to blacken up the skins before chopping. Fantastic flavor! Thanks

The recipe looks awesome, but I have one question — in the nutritional info sheet, it indicates that 1 gram has 318 mg of sodium. I don’t see how that’s possible. Since 1 gram = 1000 mg, that would mean this salsa is almost 32% salt by weight. Can you please clarify this, as that is more salt than I would use to de-ice my driveway. 😉

This recipe sounds fantastic. My husband has been cooking with me more often since we planted a straw bale garden and use our own veggies. The last recipe I tried was awful and am now looking forward to making this with my husband. Thank you for sharing and keep the recipes coming. Yay!!

Hi, I’m from Australia and the cans of diced tomatoes with chile’s is not available here. Just wondering what was in this, eg chilli type, spices etc so i could possibly substitute with something else? Thanks.

In reply to Carol. Mine lasts in my fridge for about a week. You can freeze it and you could also use a traditional canning method and then it won;t need to be refrigerated but I haven't done that as we eat it pretty quickly.

Looks good! How long can you store it?

In reply to anita. The stevia is optional if some people are used to a sweeter salsa. I like it without. I did try the fresh tomatoes but prefer the canned here. Thanks for the idea with 2 jalapeno's If my kids weren't eating it I certainly would do that.

In reply to anita. also if you use fresh tomatoes you will drop that sodium way down.

personally I would skip the OO and the stevia, not needed. I make salsa practically every other day. I also can my own. Also if you want more heat you might be better off with 2 jalapenos and still leaving out the seeds and membrane.
