I love this recipe great lunch and potluck item. I just don't add the onion as I am not an onion fan and add a little extra salsa to taste.

This just did not taste very good. I ended up throwing most of it away since I coudn't get anyone to eat more than a bite.

I've made this for the past 5 years for Grandma's Annual Beach Party. Although the first year, I wondered if some like it, each year, they ask if I'm going to make it again. It's great!
