Introduction

This is quick and easy to make at home. Sorry the measurements are a bit inexact but I eyeball it with different amounts each time based on how fresh and potent my produce is.

    This is so fresh tasting. You definitely need to add the ingredients carefully (peppers). So taste as you go. I can see this being used as an everyday condiment. - 1/31/09

    Delicious! I had a can of tomatoes and green chiles, so I used that and left out the jalapenos. I guess you could call it restaurant-style. Makes me feel like I'm eating out. I didn't add salt, and it was fine without. - 1/10/09
