    The avocado, one lime juiced, salt and pepper, and mango was a wonderful addition. Thanks Paula Dean. Another family dinner hit!

    I used this salsa for a Baked Chicken Salsa dish and it came out great. I marinated the chicken parts for about 6 hours in Olive oil, chopped garlic cloves, ground cumin, red pepper flakes, fresh chopped cilantro leaves, salt, ground pepper, about an ounces of Jose Cuervo's classic lime margarita mix (tequila, triple sec, and lime juice, and shredded colby jack cheese.

    I seared the chicken in olive oil both sides before baking. Once cooked, I added the salsa for a few minutes to bake on top. And then added shredded cheddar and monterey jack cheese (what I had on hand and it was wonderful for another couple of minutes until it melted.

    Served with black beans and rice and corn tortilla chips.

    This recipe is super simple to make. I will say that since roma tomatoes are available all year, make it with those if garden fresh tomatoes are not in season. I tried making it with the canned tomatoes that she suggested and there is NO substitution for that fresh taste that only real (uncanned tomatoes provide. . The recipe does not call for lime, but if you watch the video attached to the recipe, you will see she does add lime. Adding the lime, makes a big difference. All in all, it is a great and EASY salsa recipe!!

    This salsa was excellent! I did add a few things, including a jar of mild peppers and a little balsalmic vinegar. Very good!

    Amazing salsa, fresh, easy, tasty and I will make it again and again! Great for parties, everyone loved it. Using a food processor made making this salsa quick. I haven't tried adding additional ingredients into it yet, but the salsa is a very good base for making your own creations.

    I usually make a cooked salsa that I learned to make from my husband's family from Mexico. But, I really like this salsa! I added black beans and frozen corn and used different colored bell peppers to make it really crunchy and really pretty!

    Hubby requests this every weekend for football! Followed another reviewer's excellent suggestion and use 2 TB grapeseed oil, 1 TB red wine vinegar, and 1 lime juiced with zest. Drain the canned tomatoes really well, they actually work better than fresh. Try your favs, like shallots, more garlic, jalopeno, serranos, cilantro. Best served at room temp. Very healthy!
