My First Victory!!!!

I forgot to publish my first cooking competition win. After failing many times to make women cry...through my cooking, I finally triumphed! It was a salsa competition and my mango salsa took first prize by a long shot. I posted the recipe in an earlier post (here) but you can see the recipe below.

5 Tbl. of Cilantro, chopped
Juice of 3 to 5 limes
Dash of Cumin
Dash of Chili Powder
Salt to taste
Sugar, if needed to balance the acid of the lime juice
