Great recipe! As with every other recipe I had to add a lot more salt (just because I am not particularly health conscious in that regard), but the balance of acidity to sweetness was spot on. I also added a couple jalapeños and it turned out perfect. Never buying store bought salsa again.

  So glad you enjoyed it. And yes, I have family members who are always adding more salt. 🙂
