Spicy Green Tomato Salsa
This refreshing green tomato salsa with cilantro and lime juice gets some heat from spicy peppers. It tastes great served over cream cheese with tortilla chips for a game-time snack. It's a great way to save those green tomatoes when there is an early frost. I created this recipe with the assistance of my daughter-in-law Carolyn and her niece Felicia. Thanks to both of you!
