This is a favorite recipe of my friends and family. I make this by the gallon but I have cut this down to a more manageable portion. Served with cubes of your favorite cheese and tortilla chips, it makes a great snack for game time or other gatherings.

How To Make jeanne's hot sauce

Step 1

Remove stems from peppers, cut into two or three pieces and place into food processor.

Step 2

Pulse 5 or 6 times to get a small chunky texture. Pour into a large container that has an air-tight lid.
Step 3

Chop the onions into a fine dice and add to peppers.
Step 4

Add the chopped garlic and chopped cilantro; stir to combine well.
Step 5

Add the tomato products, garlic salt and lime juice. Stir to combine.
Step 6

Place the lid on the container and put this salsa into the refrigerator for at least an hour for flavors to combine. Better if refrigerated overnight.
Step 7

Since this is made of fresh ingredients, it must be refrigerated at all times.
Step 8

If this is going to be sitting out for a while, place your serving bowl into a shallow dish of crushed ice to keep it chilled.
Step 9

Serve with tortilla chips and cubes of your favorite cheese.
