Comments
I made this Grape Salsa recipe for neighbors and they all loved how tasty and refreshing it is. I think this salsa would be an excellent topping for fish tacos or grilled fish; it is also tasty right out of the bowl like a salad. When garden cucumbers show up I will add some chopped cucumber to this for a bit more crunch.
