Fresh Salsa Directions Put the chopped fresh tomatoes, onion, garlic, jalapeno and cilantro in a medium bowl and stir salsa all together. Add the salt, pepper and lime juice to salsa and stir. Chill your fresh salsa recipe for 30 minutes or more before serving. Serve salsa along with your favorite chips. Keep salsa fresh in the refrigerated.

Substitute, substitute, substitute. Recipes were made to be messed with. Use alternative ingredients to make your recipes healthier. Cook with broth (low-sodium vegetable, low-fat chicken or beef) instead of with oils. Use vinaigrettes or citrus-juice-based dressings instead of creamy ones, which are often full of saturated fat. Try olive oil, skim milk, or yogurt instead of butter or cream. Re-work dessert recipes that require heavy cream with evaporated skim milk or yogurt. For cakes and other desserts, substitute fresh-fruit puree as a topping instead of frosting. And one of my favorites: pancakes with applesauce, not maple syrup. These changes will give your favorite recipes great new flavor, and your food will be healthier!
