Let Things Not Go To Waste!

My husband has a thing for tomatoes, I mean he really really love them. As a result, when planting in the spring, he just simply doesn't know when to stop.

The Tomato Patch

This year he put in FIFTEEN fricken tomato plants and guess who has to deal with them? Yup, yours truly. I had intended to give them away but seems no one wanted them and rather than let them rot, which really goes against my German frugality I decided to do the following;

Harvest

The Harvest

Chop and Dice

The Chopping

Cook The Stuff

The Cooking

Into The Jars It Goes

The Filling of Jars

Process The Stuff and Voila, Finished Salsa

The Finished SalsaThe Processing

Next year I swear only three tomato plants, otherwise Steve can learn how to do this himself.
If anyone wants the recipe just leave a comment and I'll post it...now I'm going to rest my back.

Recipe please. It looks fabulous. Is that parsley? Do you have one with basil too? I love tomatoes so my mouth is watering all over my keyboard!

Your making me hungry! I love tomatoes too. The crop I have, has not done well this year. I wish I was canning. :(

I have to say it was our best tomato crop in years. It's been an unusually hot summer here, maybe that's why.
