Mild Salsa (Freezer Recipe) with Printable Labels

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.

Mild Salsa – Freezer Recipe

Ingredients:
2 green peppers
2 sweet onions
5-6lbs tomatoes
2 teaspoons garlic minced
1 tablespoon dried parsley

1 teaspoon coriander
2 tablespoons salt
2 tablespoons sugar
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
2 tablespoons Taco Seasoning
3/4 cup tomato paste
1 can condensed tomato soup
1/2 cup white vinegar
juice from 1 lime

Directions:

Begin by preparing the tomatoes (here’s a great tutorial from the Food Network on peeling tomatoes). This is the most time consuming part.  You could skip this step by buyig canned diced tomatoes, if you prefer. 

 

Prepare the onions and peppers – be sure to seed your peppers first.  And finally, carefully seed the jalapeno peppers, dice, and wash your hands! 

Carefully ladle the salsa into small freezer containers. Let the jars cool to room temperature – about 1 hour – before freezing. This will last about a week in the fridge, much longer in the freezer, of course.

Take a moment to download these cute labels for your jars, which make great holiday or hostess gifts!
