  1. This is an excellent recipe. We added shredded cabbage to our cilantro for the garnish. It added just a taste of extra flavor which is wonderful. We doubled the recipe to take to a 50th birthday party. We have friends that are vegetarians which makes this recipe extra special for us, and are excited to share it. Thank you, M.
