Garlic Salsa Recipe!

[tanuki]

Hi everyone!!

I made a few small updates to my Recipe section on my site, with the addition of a Garlic Salsa recipe! I'd be so stoked if you would check it out, and let me know what you think just not of the webpage but of the salsa itself.

I'm hoping to find some salsa snobs that can give me some critiquing. I was trying to go for something that was real garlicky - so I used both Fresh and Roasted Garlic. It's not too spicy, so I think most people would enjoy this one!

Hope someone makes it and enjoys!
