Kickin Salsa!

Alright, I have a confession. When I started my garden this year I made a bad choice and planted a few too many jalapeño and habanera plants. I should have known from last year that three plants of each was too many BUT I did it anyways. I am sweating just thinking about all of that spice!

Now I am bringing handfuls of both into my house by the day. I have a huge bag in my freezer just waiting to be thrown into a pot of chili. My tomatoes did not do as good as they usually do but the jalapeños and habaneras on the other hand were (and still are) out of control. Aside from using them for chili I love to make salsa, especially this Kickin Salsa! Since I like my salsa with a little kick it works perfectly! It’s easy to do (I love my food processor) and something you can eat for a snack or with a meal, like tacos.

1 large green pepper (can use red, orange or yellow depending on preference)
