Ro-tel style tomatoes

I love Rotel. I eat it in everything.  Since I've decided not to eat tomatoes out of a can anymore, I figured I'd need some homemade rotel as well.  Luckily, my tomato plants don't know winter is just around the corner.

I used about 3 lbs of tomatoes in this recipe:

3 lbs of peeled and chopped tomatoes
6 green chiles
2 tbsp salt









Combine and cook for about 45 minutes (until it boils down a bit).  It made only 2 pints. I canned it like regular tomatoes for 30 minutes in a water bath




 I have to get to the market to get some more tomatoes for this.  I tasted some before I canned it and it was yummy but very hot, so cut down the number of chiles if your tastes are milder.
