The Gift of Salsa

This salsa is set up to be made in large batches and 
then frozen or put in jars to give as holiday gifts. 
I found it on a website that rated it the number one 
salsa.  I tried it and it's delicious.  Nothing beats 
a homemade gift.

8 cups tomatoes, peeled, chopped, and drained
2 1/2 cups onions, chopped
1 1/2 cups green peppers
1 cup jalapeno peppers, chopped
6 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons cumin
2 teaspoons pepper
1/8 cup canning salt
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup vinegar
1 (15 oz) can tomato sauce
1 (12 oz) can tomato paste

Mix all ingredients together in a 4 quart pot and 
simmer for 10 minutes on medium heat.  Seal in jars 
and cook in hot water bath for another 10 minutes.
