The refrigerator light goes on...

You'll love this one (I did). It's the perfect Spring recipe. Bright, slightly spicy and fantastic with the halibut, this is one terrific salsa! Best of all, it takes all of about 15 minutes to put together. That's faster than you can drive to the pizza place for dinner.
