H3 Recipe: Fresh Tomato Salsa

Fresh Tomato Salsa

If you’ve ever visited H3, you know Metabo Meals are an essential component to our healthy meal plan. Metabo Meals are 100-calorie snacks designed to prevent overeating, stabilize blood glucose levels and increase metabolism. Metabo Meals here typically consist of fresh cut fruits and vegetables, yogurt, low-sodium V8, rice cakes and more. Today, I will share a new dip recipe sure to spice up your Metabo Meals and take advantage of the fresh summer tomatoes!

 

H3 Fresh Tomato Salsa

Ingredients:

2              Roma tomatoes, diced

¼ cup    Red or white onion, diced

2 Tbsp   Jalapeño, diced

¼ cup    Cilantro, chopped

¼ cup    Fresh lime juice

¼ tsp.    Sea salt

 

Preparation:

-  Combine all ingredients in a bowl.

-  Allow to sit for one hour, and then serve.

 

Chef’s Tip: Try serving this salsa with homemade tortilla chips. They’re not only a great healthy alternative to store-bought chips, but they’re easy to make too. To make your own tortilla chips, lightly spray a pan with oil. Cut corn or whole wheat tortillas into eight slices. Place the chip slices on the pan—lightly spray the top. Bake for approximately 10 minutes at 375-400 degrees.
