In the past year my passion for food has risen to the forefront of my day to day life. I have come to realize the power of food to create memories and traditions. The "mess ups" provide opportunity to laugh while the good ones are wonderful to share.

Salsa-ing into Summer!


This summer I want to play around with different kinds of salsa. Salsa's are incredibly healthy and a great way to get your fruits and veggies!!! They are a wonderful refreshing snack.
Yesterday we had friends over for a cookout and I concocted a wonderful fruit salsa. It was great for chips, or I also poured some over cream cheese to make a thicker spread. That was great on crackers.

Fruit Salsa

3 mangoes diced
2 kiwi's with skin off
1 pineapple (I got the kinds in the produce section what was cut and cored)
1/4 cup strawberries
1/4 of a red onion
1/4 cup of cilantro
1/2 jalapeno pepper, without seeds

Put all the ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend to desired consistency.

    I would be happy to try a peach mango salsa, or that mango avocado salsa, or any really!

    I just made an avocado salsa last week and it was great over our steaks.
