YUM! Love this recipe. It will save lots of money during garden season. I made my salsa with fresh tomatoes & onions. I just weighed the veggies & divided by 28 oz to figure out how much seasoning to use.

I also added some lime juice at the end - love the mix because you can keep it simple or mix it up & can't go wrong. Thx for the recipe!
