Monday’s Specialty Sauce - Dec 24, 2012

Mild Tomato Salsa - Coarsely chopped in the tradition of authentic Mexican salsas, Stonewall Kitchen Mild Salsa is full of texture and overflowing with flavor. The tomato base is highlighted with bits of onions and peppers, a hint of cilantro and lime, then accented by a subtle jalapeno ending for an extra flavorful, yet mild tasting salsa.
