This is super good! I added a little less sugar and a little more jalapeno..... It's pretty addicting.

I really liked this. A little sweet, a little spicy. I added extra jalapeno's. Used a green bell pepper since I didn't have red - but now that I see it, I like it with the green. Shared this with some friends and the second one of them tasted it, she immediately asked for the recipe. Thanks for sharing!

I made the Salsa as gifts for my staff. They loved the taste and the presentation with the christmas tree chips. Thanks for the great recipe. Tee
