When you have too many tomatoes on hand, one great way to use them up is by making this Freezer Salsa Recipe. You can make a big batch to enjoy later in the year with tortilla chips and Guacamole!

Salsa is a staple in our house, and it's one of Mr. Juggling Act go-to snacks. With an abundance of tomatoes this year from our garden, we decided to throw together a big batch of freezer salsa. The great thing about making your own salsa - just like making your own spice mixes - is being able to customize the flavor just right.
Neither one of us is a big fan of cilantro, we we opted not to use that, instead using a little coriander to season the salsa. I'm not big on super spicy food, and with just a couple of jalapenos and my mild Taco Seasoning mix, this salsa is pretty harmless.
If you like it hot, you can add a bit of cayenne pepper, or a couple of habanero peppers to up the ante.
