I love this recipe! It is very pretty and festive looking and goes great with hint of lime tortila chips...one tip...when seeding the pomegranate--place it in water fully submerged. The seeds will sink the rind will rise and make for stainless removal! Enjoy! Read More

I brought this to a party and it was a huge hit - people ask for it specifically now. I did up the spice in the salsa by adding more peppers (I did 3 jalepenos and 3 serranos - gave it a really good kick). Read More

I like the recipe. It tastes really good. However I am not sure I made it right. I do not know what a "sprig" means or if "bunches" is what is sold at the store? Thanks. Read More

This recipe is fabulous it is like a party in your mouth with all of the flavors. The lime Tortilla chips are the perfect accompaniment to go with it. I am not fond of Italian Parsley so I omitted it. Read More

Wasn't sure how this was going to be but I like salsa and I've been addicted to pomegranates the past few weeks... It was really good and looks great too. Only thing is my "bunches" must be bigger than the authors; I used one bunch of cilantro and one bunch of parsley and the pomegranate seeds got lost even with a large fruit. Ended up using two fruits' worth of seeds and added some more lime juice and mint. People were a little skeptical but those who tried it loved it! Read More
