One of my favorite parts of the STRIVE 2 Survive lectures is enjoying the tasty and healthy treats County Fair Foods provides for our participants. Last night we had a really great Chicken Ceasar Salad and an excellent Healthy Homemade Salsa. Right now is a great time for salsa as tomotoes are in season. Tomatoes are an excellent source of antioxidants, lycopene, vitamins and minerals, and are low in calories. Be sure to try out this healthy salsa recipe with some whole grain chips or baked chips.
Healthy Homemade Salsa
6 fresh tomatoes chopped
1 cup fresh cilantro
1 jalapeno finely chopped (take seeds out to make it less hot)
1/2 white onion chopped
Mix all ingredients together and serve with whole grain chips.
Stay tuned to tomorrow’s post for the salad recipe!
