You can control the spicy-ness by choosing mild or hot salsa. If you really like salsa, add a bigger jar. If you really like hot and spicy, add a 4 ounce can of diced green chilies, drained. You can add a can of

sliced black olives (drained) too, if your family likes them. Feel free to use low fat or fat free sour cream or cheese, if desired.
