Ok...how many bushels do you need?
This recipe sounds good. I will have to try it on Hubby. It might be something that we like well enough to can for later.
It would be nice to have enough recipes for canning, so I don't have guilt about those suckers going to waste.

This looks great and I have some tomatillos. Good for the games tomorrow!
