Yesterday I talked about a mango replacing chocolate cake.  While that may be stretch for some, I encourage you to try it, and work on replacing a whole food filled with sweetness, instead of inhaling that chocolate whatever:  cake, candy, cookie laced with refined sugars and oils you don’t want to enter your body. Consider this, how do you feel after you eat a mango, versus a chocolate bar after a couple of hours?

Fresh Mango Salsa

• 3 cups diced fresh Mango (or Papaya, or Peaches)
• 2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved (optional)
• 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
• 3 to 4 green onions, thinly sliced into rounds
• 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely diced
• 1 to 2 limes, juiced
• dash extra virgin olive oil
• 1/2 teaspoon Herbamare or sea salt

Toss all ingredients together in a bowl. Let sit for about 10 minutes before serving to let the flavors mingle. Serve over mixed greens, beans and rice, or grilled fish. Source: www.NourishingMeals.com
