Very easy solution, don't prepare more than you can eat at once.
The fresh version lasts maybe three days in the fridge. The cooked
version will last a week in the fridge or can be frozen.
I much prefer the fresh version but only prepare a quantity I can eat
in one sitting. During summer when my garden is going well I prepare
about a quart each morning and it's eaten for brunch. I have no exact
recipe, depends on the harvest, but typically contains Roma tomatoes,
bell peppers, onion, garlic, parsley, sometimes Kirby cukes, and
whatever else I find. I grow various hot peppers but add very little
as I don't care for all that heat... most of my hot peppers are given
away, or I should say traded with neighbors who garden. To me salsa
is more of a salad than a condiment.
