Chili Sauce

I've got to admit I've never been a really big fan of the bottled chili sauce. The kids used it on hot dogs for awhile, but I've always been a mustard and relish type of guy. (by the way, if the peppers I planted turn out well, we'll have a good relish recipe for you later this summer. My mother always made her own, a simple kind with peppers, onion, vinegar and sugar as the only real ingredients and I can wait to make a batch). Anyway, I much prefer the flavor of this chili sauce, which was adapted from a recipe from the American heart association to the kind found in stores. There are enough veggies in it to give it something more than a glorified catsup taste. It keeps well in the refrigerator for weeks and you could freeze it if you wanted. Or you could make a big batch of the baked beans that follow. The serving size for the nutritional calculation is 1 tablespoon.
