condiment Adventures in Salsa

First time making salsa (got 2 SFRB of peppers so trying out a lot of recipes) and first time cooking with superhots.
 
Would love any tips from pros. Kind of just winging it right now. =/
 
Can of Diced Tomatoes (yeah I don't have fresh ones, get over it people :(), White Vinegar, Olive Oil

Let it sautee for a bit, open up the tomatoes, mmmm preservatives:

Pour a dash of vinegar in there:

Blend in Magic Bullet that other people use for vegetable juices and protein shakes. Hope you wash it well enough and there's no pepper residue when they use it for those things.

Jar it up, stick it in the fridge, hope it doesn't taste bad:

No vinegar. Put da lime in the Salsa and shake it all up! 
Add Green Onions along with your purple ones
Fresh Tomatoes (Vine Ripe)
Cilantro (Pinch)
a  couple Tomotillo's
and lots more peppers
 
That's all I'm saying
 
Looks good! Lots of types of salsas and many are pureed and have vinegar. Hope it tastes good. Probably good on a grilled or blackened chicken sandwich.
