Rich is a friend of Mr. Pete’s and he shared this recipe with us years ago. It is now a family favorite! With tomatoes still out on the vine this is a great way to use them up in place of the canned diced tomatoes.

RICH’S “HAPPNIN'” SALSA
(a work in progress)

4–14 oz. cans of diced tomatoes –– drain the juice (generic brands work
fine)
––––(I use a mini food processor to further chop up the tomatoes)
1/2 to 2/3 medium Red Onion, finely chopped
3/4 tsp. coarse ground black pepper (no more, maybe less)
4 tsp. cumin
4 tsp. chopped garlic (about four big cloves, finely chopped)
1 tsp. cayenne pepper
5 to 8 drops tobasco sauce, depending on desired heat
One batch of fresh cilantro, finely chopped (mostly leaves, fewer stems)
Juice from one fresh lime and one fresh lemon
Four jalapeño peppers, finely chopped (no seeds unless you want the
heat)

Mix above ingredients together in a medium bowl, let chill for about an
hour, and serve with white corn tortilla chips. No fat, no
cholesterol, good taste, lots ‘o heat!!!
