Ingredients

  • 10 cups chopped tomatoes about 6 pounds
  • 5 cups chopped and seeded bell peppers about 2 pounds
  • 5 cups chopped onions about 1 1/2 pounds
  • 2 1/2 cups chopped and seeded hot peppers about 1 pound
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tbs cilantro minced
  • 1 1/4 cups apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  • Chop all ingredients in a food processor for quicker chopping. If you're using juicy tomatoes you may want to seed, peel, and core them. I skip this step because I use Roma or other paste tomatoes.
  • Combine all ingredients in a large pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for ten minutes.
  • Ladle hot salsa into hot jars making sure to leave a 1/4 inch head space.
  • Place lids and rings on jars and tighten.
  • Process pints for 15 minutes in a water bath canner, or quarts for 20 minutes.

Notes

Make sure to wear gloves when cutting and seeding the hot peppers!
