1 can (14 1/2 oz) whole tomatoes, undrained and chopped
1/3 cup fresh cilantro, minced
1 Tbl fresh jalapeno pepper,finely chopped
*I don't use cooking spray...I prefer to lightly coat pan with olive oil, as spray contains additives that eventually coat and ruin your cookware-CB.
Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; place over medium heat until hot. Add onion, bacon and garlic; saute 5 minutes. Stir in cumin, pepper, peas, and tomatoes. Remove from heat; stir in remaining ingredients. Spoon into a bowl; cover and chill 1 to 8 hours.
