Guest guest Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Hello, AJ. I love your recipes here and at the spicy group. I just want to know if I could use fresh tomatoes with this? How many, if I can? I can't wait for the fresh tomatoes and peppers.

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Thank you Lena, Yes you can use fresh, I would say about 12 cups peeled diced tomatoes, split in half and puree half of it. When my tomatoes come in and its near the end of the season I freeze about 50 bags of 2 cup portions, They come in handy in the winter. Take care AJ Hello, AJ.

Guest guest Posted April 25, 2008 Report Share Posted April 25, 2008 Thank you for replying. Now I have a question about freezing tomatoes. I tried the year before last and they turned out terrible. Do you do anything special to them? I just cut them up and froze them because that is what a neighbor told me but I think she told me wrong or I goofed.
