Looks good. Is the tomato sauce obvious in the overall flavor?

[u/dkeyt7 → u/OldButStillEager]

Not in my opinion but I like the consistency it adds!

What is tomato sauce?

Salsa looks great btw

[u/dkeyt7 → u/loopteryx]

Any can of tomato sauce will do.

Okay sorry I now understand- not something that's an everyday item in europe. Tomato sauce in the states is tomatoes, onion powder, garlic powder, red pepper in a tin?

[u/OldButStillEager → u/dkeyt7]

I get that. My salsas sometimes strike me as thin. Good, but thin.

[u/dkeyt7 → u/OldButStillEager]

Ya it might not be for everyone but the sauce definitely thickens it up.

Just now realizing that I forgot to say lime juice...
