    I really enjoyed this salad! I used salsa instead of tomatoes. This had a nice fresh flavor with just the right amount of spices. - 8/27/12

    This is very good. I did leave out the sugar, and I added a fresh jalapeno, since I had some in the fridge. I created a little bit more dressing, so I could pour it over my lettuce, as I used this to top a salad. - 6/25/11

    Very good. Next time I'll try using lime juice instead of the vinegar. - 6/21/11

    Made this and did not add any sugar. Doubled it and used a can of kidney beans and a can of black beans. Didn't have red onion so I used yellow instead. Very good! - 6/9/11

    This was delicious! We ate it as a salad tonight for dinner, but next time I think we'll keep it as a side and serve beside some herb crusted salmon or tilapia! We left out the olive oil and vinegar and served. - 1/2/11

    I used salsa instead of tomato as recommended by others & it was great! The only problem is I couldn't just eat one serving (good thing it's low in calories)! - 2/10/10

    Wonderful mix of flavors. I didn't have a 1/2 cup of diced tomatoes, so I used salsa. Also, I used dried cilantro which worked out okay. I could see how fresh cilantro would make this even more wonderful. - 1/25/10
