Great salad we enjoyed it...I added some jicama sliced up on top for some crunch.

For lobster lovers, this rocks! I did not use watercress, and served the salsa on bibb lettuce leaves. But I could see this salsa topped with any left over like chicken, duck, or steak slices...scallops, shrimp. Do that Naan, (#178020) as a scooper, sopper, or side. DH, salad dude says "yup"!
