Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
This is an easy, yummy salsa. You can adjust the heat to your liking by adding hot banana peppers into your pepper mix or reducing the amount of jalapenos. I like to use canned jalapenos (Herdez makes good ones) because I know they will be hot. Fresh ones vary so much in heat, you never know what you will be getting.
