What should I do with...

  ...Sweet Potato Leaves? 


How about this:
Sweet Potato Leaves (homegrown)
Swiss Chard (homegrown)
one Scotch Bonnet pepper (homegrown)
Onions (Costco)
Four homemade Polish Sausages

The Scotch Bonnet was SO hot that we added:
one quart of Garbanzo Beans (home canned)
one can of organic diced Tomatoes (Costco)


And we washed it all down with home brewed Kombucha!
  The Scotch Bonnet heat is the kind that is accumulative~ okay at first, but at the end it was almost all you could do to eat it! (Adrienne thought Kombucha did a better job cutting the heat than Orange Juice.)  No salt or pepper or anything else needed.  Very good flavor with just the ingredients listed above....

The bottom line? It was really good...too bad you weren't here!

Salsa remake....

Basic recipe click HERE.  Some ingredients really depend on the flavor of the produce used.


The first time we made this the tomatoes were pretty weak and watery so we ended up using 1 1/2 jars (10-11oz) of Italian tomato paste.  This year we used one 7oz jar and maybe didn't need it.
We did add extra lime juice (2T), salt (2t.), cumin (1t.) and garlic (1/2t.) this year.....we ended up with hotter jalapenos, or using more of them, plus 3 Scottish Bonnets in the pepper mix.  It's much hotter than last year's batch. (Adrienne keeps sneezing!) But still good!


I hope hubby can get used to raw salsa.  He prefers his tomatoes cooked......  
8 1/2 pints in the freezer!
