Recipe Notes
might try throwing in a green bell pepper next time just because I always thought they were in the Pace salsa in the past…but perhaps not. It definitely tastes like the real thing though and your kitchen will smell great afterwards 
And this is absolutely a great way to get rid of some tomatoes if you use fresh crushed tomatoes instead which I imagine I will need to do when we start harvesting our own tomatoes which will likely be numerous
