Great tasting and FRESH
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I made this recipe yesterday and it tastes great! I'm glad I set aside plenty of time for chopping and dicing! It took much... longer than 20 minutes to prepare. I also added a Green Giant Extra Sweet Corn. You microwave it right in the bag, let it cool to room temperature and stir it in. So colorful! A teaspoon of sugar gave the salsa some gentleness. I made the entire batch but put it into two bowls so I could regulate the amount of Jalape?os. Now my granddaughter will have her own milder version and grandpa will be happy with the peppers. I'll make this recipe again with the changes I mentioned above.Read more

Excellent!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was a great recipe that was enjoyed by everyone! The recipe makes more than expected. I adjusted it by using two cans... of black beans, rinsed well in the strainer. I didn't have enough time to cook the beans and don't think the recipe was negatively affected. Delicious!Read more

Very good!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I made this for a 4th of July party and it was gone by the dinner time! A lot of compliments. Next time I'm going to put less... cilantro, as it had too much of a cilantro taste for me.Read more
