FRUIT & TOMATO SALSA

Fruit & Tomato Salsa image

This is a spicy, fruity salsa . We use it with chips, of course, but it can be a condiment with meat dishes as well. My family and friends eat it by the jar; we love the sweet and spicy combination! It is mild to medium in heat, but it is easy to adjust for taste. You can "cheat " by adding tomato paste to thicken, if too runny.

Tips:

- Use ripe, fresh tomatoes for the best flavor. - Choose tomatoes that are firm and free of blemishes. - Roma tomatoes are a good choice for salsa because they are meaty and have fewer seeds. - If you don't have Roma tomatoes, you can use other types of tomatoes, such as cherry tomatoes or beefsteak tomatoes. - Just be sure to remove the seeds before chopping. - You can also use canned tomatoes in a pinch, but fresh tomatoes will give you the best flavor. - If you want a spicier salsa, add more jalapeños or serrano peppers. - If you want a milder salsa, remove the seeds from the peppers before chopping. - You can also add other ingredients to your salsa, such as corn, black beans, or avocado. - Be creative and experiment until you find a salsa that you love.
