INGREDIENT OPTIONS:

  • Use frozen corn instead of canned. Just thaw and drain thoroughly before adding to salsa.
  • Don’t like cilantro? Just leave it out.
  • Feel free to use red, yellow or an orange bell pepper instead of green.
  • A different dressing can be used in place of the Italian dressing. I love to use a cilantro lime dressing.
