Aimee says
Ah, this looks so good. I actually wanted to make a corn salsa for my kids lunches this week and with a tiny tweak to omit the jalapeño I think this recipe would be perfect.
Celeste says
Yeah, omitting the jalapenos would be a good thing for young kids. I hope they like it. Thanks for stopping by Aimee.

Saucy and pico style - I'll take either! I also love adding fresh lime to salsa. This looks great as a quesadilla topper!
Celeste says
This stuff is pretty amazing, just had with quesadillas last night. Thanks for your comment Nicole.

Yeah, fore-roasted is a wonderful thing. Thanks Adriana.
