Haven't been to Cancun, Mr. Duck_Man, but I can assure you that I'm real glad you have! Your salsa is just dandy. Just the right amount of heat and downright good flavor. Kudos to you for posting a keeper! Laudee C.

I really was glad to find a recipe without garlic as my husband doesn't eat it. I only had dried ciantro and 3 tomatoes. I did use my mini food processor to chop and mix together. We used it for recipe #38947 burrito bake and ate the left overs with chips. I will make this again.

Fabulous salsa! I added 1 clove finely minced garlic and used 2 jalapenos since I like spicy. Fabulous and fresh.
