Very tasty. My husband, in fact, gave this the highest compliment possible. I offered him some salsa on the side and he declined it saying it didn't need anything. I made this following the recipe exactly. The tart shell was very good. A touch of a bite but nothing that would scare off someone who prefers less spice. This will be made again and again and again. Thanks Linaj!
