Fruit Salsa



So I originally bought some fresh mint for a tabbouleh recipe (coming soon) and had a ton left over. I made up this salsa on a whim and used it on top of veggie burgers and salads all week. All the flavors were so bright and crisp and really went together so well!

Tips:
  • Use a pyrex measuring cup to first measure out the salsa, then add in the chopped tomato, mint, and just fill the rest of the measuring cup to the top with equal parts of frozen fruit. This way you only dirty one measuring tool!
  • Frozen fruit is picked at it's peak and then frozen to ensure maximum flavor and sweetness. Just nuke the fruit in the microwave for 60 seconds to thaw more quickly.
  • Use lime juice from a bottle if you don't have fresh ones available

Peach, Pineapple, Mango, and Mint Salsa
1/4 cup mild or medium salsa of choice from a jar
1/4 cup mint, chopped
1 medium tomato, chopped
1.5 cups thawed frozen peaches, pineapple, and mango, chopped
2 T lime juice

Combine all ingredients together and enjoy!!
