My Rockin' Salsa

adapted from all recipes rockin' salsa
makes about 8 pint jars

3 large onions, chopped
6 lbs. fresh tomatoes, peeled and chopped
2 banana peppers, chopped
1 green bell pepper, chopped
2 anaheim peppers, chopped
2-3 jalapeños, deseeded and chopped
1-2 (6 oz) cans tomato paste
1/2 cup white vinegar
3 TB minced garlic
1 1/2 TB salt
1 TB cayenne pepper
1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 cup sugar
cilantro chopped



Combine all ingredients, taste and adjust ingredients to your liking and simmer 3 hours.  Fill jars to 1/4 inch of the top.  Run knife around the tips. boil lids and place on top, screw on rings.  Process for 10-15 minutes.  Remove and allow to cool several inches apart.

This turned out delicious!!!  I doubled this recipe and actually had about 13-14 lbs of tomatoes.  Our jalapeños and onions were really strong this year so I don't know if that changes it much….it was the perfect amount of hot for our family.
