Introduction
I had to be somewhat of a "harvesting ninja" to get the goods for this spicy salsa from my garden - my stepdad has banned me from veggie picking this year :-S ! The heat is stealthy too - since the peppers are all roasted it starts off mellow, then brings a punch from behind! Serving size = approx 2 tbsp I had to be somewhat of a "harvesting ninja" to get the goods for this spicy salsa from my garden - my stepdad has banned me from veggie picking this year :-S !
