This is really really good! I didn't use the sugar but added a little bit of fresh ground black pepper. I served it on some chicken that I had marinated in some of that bottled stuff (hawiian flavor) and then grilled. Very fresh and summery tasting. I ate the left overs PLAIN! Thanks for a new passion!

This is soooo good. I added some olive oil and some pineapple and some salt and pepper - but no sugar. Also a clove of garlic. I used just one jalepeno. I served it with grilled teriayki chicken and steamed rice and brocolli.

Great! I used red bell peppers in lieu of jalapenos, as this salsa was accompanying a really spicy dish (which it complemented wonderfully, by the way!) and I didn't use any sugar. Thanks for a deliciously easy salsa!

I only deviated by using serrano peppers because jalepenos are not much hotter than bell peppers.

This salsa is amazing! The best I've ever made from scratch. It's sweet, it's spicy, it's colorful. Perfect served with chips, but I imagine it's great with fish or tacos. Instead of sugar, I added some salt and pepper. I also added a drizzle of olive oil as another reviewer suggested.
