I really didn't care for it very much. I have tried other salsas and liked them much better.

I made this ahead of time for a picnic and wasn't super impressed. The flavors seemed to muddle together whereas I was hoping to get more of an individual flavor from each. Perhaps it was because I made it ahead of time. Perhaps because I didn't cook it? It was a nice salsa but not quite what I was looking for.

Full 5 stars! Made once one huge batch of it, people loved it! It is sounds maybe to somewhat unappetizing, but it tastes wonderful, very nice recipe!
