Homemade Salsa

My husband made this salsa the other night. It is the best batch he has made. I am a salsa lover so it won't last long around here! Here are the ingredients he used for canning them:

10 lbs of roma tomatoes
3 jalapenos (with seeds left in). We recommend 4-5 after tasting it.
2 onions chopped
Bunch of cilantro
Mexican oregano
Tablespoon of cumin
5 California chili's

I boiled the California chili's on the stove, then pureed them and added to the roma tomatoes. It really enhances the color and flavor without adding heat. I think they use these to make enchilada sauce... if not, I will try them the next time I make enchiladas.
