This recipe is a favourite of mine, it's from From Cindy's Kitchen ( my son-in-law Mike's Mom) 2 qt red tomato - diced 2 lg green pepper 2 lg. red pepper 1 red onion & 1 reg. onion 4 stalks of celery 13 oz. can tomato paste 4 jalapeno peppers - you can add heat to taste. 1/2 cup vinegar 1/2 cup brown sugar salt & pepper to taste 7 - 8 dashes of tabasco sauce You can dice your veggies as big or as small as you like. That's the time consuming part!!! The rest is easy. Boil everything for about an hour or until you have the desired consistency you like. Every batch is different depending on how juicy all the veggies are. Bottle while hot and you're all set.
