I made this for someone following a special diet for health reasons, so I was unable to add the salt or oil to the recipe. But this was filled with flavour anyway and so easy to make. Thanks for the recipe. -
My husband made this once just on a whim with some leftover ingredients and now we eat it all the time. Watch out though, this recipe makes several weeks worth of salsa if you're eating it by yourself so you better plan on sharing it. Nobody will complain about helping you eat it. -
I absolutely loved this recipe! I did substitute a can of hot rotel for the jalapenos to make my life easier and just used a little less of the diced tomatoes to make up for it. I also didn't use the cumin. But EVERYONE that ate this loved it! Thanks! -
I am not a salsa maker, usually just open a jar, but decided to try to make it for a picnic. This is a great recipe--n0t too hot, but you can heat it up if you like. I made just a couple of minor changes: didn't have fresh jalapenos so used jar diced jalapenos. Used a couple of crumbled Knorr cilantro cubes 'cause I didn't have fresh cilantro. Used one can of Rotel with jalapenos and instead of 2 cans of shoe peg, used one can of shoepeg and one can of white niblets. Everyone loved the salsa. I'll be using this one again!

I grew up in a large family and both parents enjoyed cooking. My mom was the more traditional cook while my dad liked to experiment with new recipes and ideas. I cook like both of them. I'll jump in & try a new dish and improvise when needed (which my mom hates).... enjoy your time in the kitchen!
