The girls (and I) will love this. I have cilantro growing in my garden so I'll throw some extra of that in as well. When I first started using cilantro you sort of have to adquire a taste for it, but I really love it now. If I make salsa without cilantro, it just doesn't have the same zing.

There's a restaurant here in South Jersey that has a little bowl of olive oil & cilantro & scallions on every table. They serve fresh bread to dip in it. Boy is it good. I'm trying to figure out if there is anything else in it. But the cilantro makes it.

Completely agree! Cilantro can make or break a salsa. I consider myself a salsa expert, having tasted so many and found so few that are worth of chips and a margarita. We have a local restaurant called the Beltline Bar that has the best homemade salsa I've ever had. And of course, one of my all-time favorite salsas has to be from Chevy's... if you have a good salsa recipe, please freepmail it to me.

One year I planted cilantrol and I guess the winds blew the seeds all over but that year we had cilantro all over our yard. The place smelled good and I always had a strange desire to eat pico de gallo. This growth lasted one year and then they all died.
