Lots of tomatoes this year because of the good rains past couple of months...too bad it's not still raining right now...too hot outside!
Some of the tomatoes had ripened and i had quite a few of them...so we blanched them(cooked) in a pan and then stored in sealing jars..just the regular glass jar storage...the same way I made all those pickles!...haha!
I put away some whole tomatoes and then I used the food strainer/colander and made a few more sealed jars of tomato juice that I will use this fall when I make vegetable soups and sauces...
My Grandma worked on this too and we shared all the sealed jars...I got half and she got half of the jars...
I made a small batch of salsa today out of fresh tomatoes and I placed it in a jar with a lid.....I tried some and it is very good...it's in the refrigerator staying cool..i like cilantro, onions, diced garlic in my salsa I create..
i like the the smell of fresh cilantro and salsa....It is very good with tortilla chips...it's a fresh favorite in the summer...
After we completed working on all those projects, I took my Grandparents to lunch at Taco Mayo.
They like going to lunch at Taco Mayo..it's a nice restaurant chain....I like their menu items..I just wish that the menu included a few more Tex-Mex items...My Grandparents have tried everything on the menu for years there....haha!
I like all Mexican food restaurants..some of my favorite dining choices....
