Cajun Salsa

This variation of Mexican salsa substitutes the common ingredients (for the most part) for ingredients found in the Cajun pantry. You can make it hot or not! I fixed this salsa for my nephew’s graduation and it was a success. If I had had more time to marinate, it would have been entirely too awesome. Great for Super Bowl or Mardi Gras get-togethers.
