Dear Mrs. Mac...
This looks so yummy!!
It would be nice to make for the Spanish people.
Spanish people prefer taco chips and salsa rather than sweets.
I would leave out the garlic and put in lots of hot peppers.
I love hot peppers!!
LOTS of hot peppers!!...Love Terry
I agree with loving hot peppers! I make this milder version because Nathan can tolerate it ... he scoops it right up on his chips and asks for more.
No hot peppers for me please.
Nathan and I will take the milder version - and some water mellon -thank you.
dear mrs. mac,
i am getting mellow in my old age..i might use the tiniest bit of garlic...maybe...love terry
Ha!! and miss patty?...lots of hot peppers!
Tonight (9/18/09) I canned seven pints of Mexican seasoned stewed tomatoes to use specifically for this recipe. It's a good salsa as it's very flavorful and has both canned and fresh ingredients. The cilantro and lemon or lime splash wake up the flavors.
