Cool, chunky salsas loaded with vegetables and fruits increase the vitamin and mineral content of any meal. Rich in color and healthy pigments, salsas are a perfect complement to any meat, poultry, or seafood. They are also delicious as a dip with corn chips. For extra zing, add more chiles or black pepper to the mix. The fruit/vegetable combinations are endless!
