Surprisingly good for being so simple! I substituted parsley for the cilantro (I can't STAND cilantro) and it came out great.<br/>I may cut back the onion a bit the next time, as I found the onion to be a bit overpowering (I may have just gotten a particularly strong onion though).

We loved this recipe! Made exactly as directed. However, instead of eating as a salad, we used as a "salsa" with tortilla chips, it was awesome!!! Will be making again. Thank you.

Ohhhh! This is good! I didn't change a thing except to leave out the jalapeno. I like having a bowl of healthy vegetable stuff in the fridge for snacking on now the warmest part of summer is here.
