Salsa for Canning

15 tomatoes peeled and chopped
2 green bell peppers, chopped
5 cups chopped onions, chopped
5 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
10 chopped and seeded  small jalapenos
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup vinegar
4 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon cumin
1 12oz can tomato paste

I used a food processor to mince all of my veggies but you could chop yours to whatever size you like. Simmer 1 1/2 hrs, stirring often, at the end of cooking time add 1/2 bunch of cilantro if desired (I don't but I am told it is good). Jar and water bath, 35 minutes for pint jars and 45 minutes for quart jars.
Makes 3 Quarts (or 4 if you add LOTS of peppers)

Enjoy!

This is a sweet and very mild salsa. If you want it hotter just add more peppers. I did one batch used 20 small unseeded jalapenos and I would say it was a medium salsa. We of course then had to do another batch that my husband was given free rain over and added an unholy amount of all kinds of peppers and it is CRAZY hot!! So do it to your liking:)

Oreo Krispies

1 package Oreos
10 oz bag Marshmallows
1 tbsp Butter

Crush Oreos, I find it best to use a food processor to crush them REALLY well and fast) In a microwave safe bowl pour bag of marshmallows and add the pat of butter. Microwave about a minute and a half until the marshmallows puff up. Add crushed oreos and stir. It will be a little hard to combine and really sticky but tis totally worth it!! Lay out in a well grease pan. You can use 8x8 but I think that makes them to thick so I use the one just bigger but not quite a 9x13 (I dont know what size that is??) Allow to cool. Cut to desired size. If I am taking them somewhere I put a little frosting in a baggie and pipe it over the top to look more decorative. Blackish Brownish mushed oreo doesn't look great...BUT IT TASTES FABULOUS!!

Homemade Butterfingers

16oz bag Candy Corn
16oz cont. Peanut Butter, Creamy
1 bag chocolate chips

Melt candy corn in the microwave, add peanut butter. Mix well. Pour mixture into well greased or lined 8x8 pan and allow to cool completely. Cut into whatever size pieces you want. Melt chocolate chips (in microwave or double boiler) and coat all your peices. Lay out until chocolate hardens. ENJOY!!! I know it sounds like it would make anything resembling a butterfinger but...IT SO DOES:)
