I used all minced red pepper and omitted the green only because my family does not care for green peppers. I also used reduced fat sour cream/mayonnaise and I increased the garlic powder to a half teaspoon. This is absolutely DELICIOUS. My kids and I shared this for a quick lunch served with tortilla chips. All of us loved it. I was missing the flavor of cilantro (I know that it's usually a love/hate relationship with cilantro I'm a lover.) next time I would swap out the parsley for cilantro. Read More

I doubled this and served once as a side dish and once as a dip. It received rave reviews at church. I made a few changes based on personal preferences. I replaced the green bell pepper with more red and yellow peppers substituted plain yogurt for the sour cream and used corn I had canned. Simple to make versatile and tastes great on the second day!

Very easy to make. Was skeptical of the sauce but when we all tasted it...absolutely delicious! I didn't have fresh parsely so I used fresh cilantro. I am a big fan and almost always have it on hand. It was a big hit. Will definately make again (and again)! Read More

As a cilantro hater this cilantro-less salsa appealed to me. I followed the recipe though I did choose to eliminate black pepper per personal preference and I didn't measure the corn peppers or onions. We preferred to eat this as a side dish rather than a dip. If I make this again I'll use dried parsley as opposed to fresh simply because it's not our favorite and dried is a bit less pungent. Thanks for the recipe Amy! Read More

Delicious. Made all of the dressing but only used 1/2 when I tossed it in with the beans and veggies. For my family's tastes it was a good choice - perfect amount. Thanks for the recipe will be making it again. Read More

I loved this! I did make one adjustment only as a nod to the fact that I'm trying to watch my macros. I substituted Greek yogurt for the sour cream and the dressing was delicious! This is one of those recipes that you could easily play around with; add avocado hot peppers whatever tickles your taste buds! I also plan on making the dressing to use it on my salads it's that yummy:) Read More
