[Red]

I did a garden the last ten years and last year was my first for salsa so i used roma tomatos because less water and seeds more meat,white onions,jalapeno pepper,mild red peppers,cilantro,thats a good start i canned and got 40 pints i have so much salsa left i dont no if i will eat it all also you might as well do speghetti to because you have all ingredients .I can not wait to plant this week i have started all my seeds in my garden window 7 weeks ago it is a forest in the window lol.
