     Great. I added some fresh tomato and a teaspoon of garlic. - 4/28/08

     Rotel is a brand name of tomatoes spiced w/ green chiles... comes in mild and hot.

    Rotel is a brand name, like Dole or Green Giant.

    I think it costs approx. $1 per can. - 4/10/13

     It tastes better when it has time to blend the flavors. I did it overnight, yum yum! Thanks for a great recipe! - 1/29/09

     Nice and spicey! It was easy to put together and I like the fact that it can be used by itself as a salad or a topping over fish, an ingredient in a vegetarian taco/burrito or eaten with pita chips! - 5/5/08

     I really liked it! I also like that its very versatile, you can make it hotter or milder depending on the taste and it wouldn't alter the nutrition too much. Thanks for the recipe! - 5/11/08
  • HOCKENTL

     I omit Rotel - not into spicy - I added chopped tomatoes and bell pepper - delicious! - 4/10/13
  • KISSFAN1
     Does anyone know how much 1 serving is (tbsp, 1/4 cup, etc.)? I know it says it makes 15 servings, but not sure how much each one of those is. They have something like this at Trader Joe's that is wonderful! - 12/9/12

     I just whipped this up and it was AWESOME! A definite repeat. - 4/10/13
  • SJSTUCKEY
     I'd read somewhere (reliable) that canned tomatoes have a bad chemical in them, and that tomatoes canned in GLASS jars are better (or, of course, fresh!). I'd probably go with a jar of salsa (Herdez is good), and then throw in the extra veggies. :) - 4/10/13

  • AGPLCANDLELADY
     Excellent recipe. I made it with lemon juice, since I was out of lime & no cilantro. I also added some ground cumin. LOVED IT - 3/21/13

  • MOPSMOM3
     VERY yummy!! Looks nice, too! I got lots of compliments on it from the company last night-- well worth the 5 minutes I put into making it!! LOL. Oh--and I had so substitute lemon juice for the lime, and it still was very tasty!! - 3/8/08
  • SOUTHERNGIRL02
     This is a delicious, healthy salsa. The fresh lime juice and fresh cilantro really make it. I might try it with a "mild" rotel next time, so it's a little less spicy. I used this to make soft tacos with grilled shrimp on whole wheat tortillas. I added fat free sour cream and low fat shredded chedder - 2/15/08
  • EBTBALD4
     I also add minced garlic and, if in season, I replace the Rotel with chopped tomatoes! YUM! - 2/19/15
  • CD13538802
