Delicious! It was healthy and no heat in my kitchen, quick to put together, I added a few cherry tomates halved, some thinly sliced green onions and croutons. My hsband is not much on salad meals but he really liked this one

Just ok

Good, basic, but nothing special really. 

Great hot-weather dinner

I was amused at the Super Bowl reference; I found this looking for something for dinner at 105 degrees outside!  we liked this a lot; I had to improvise the pico de gallo with commercial salsa, chopped tomato, and chopped green onion, but will do it "right next time."  A really healthy meal.
