Getting Healthy Summer Salsa

by | Alcohol and Drug Abuse | 0 comments

Since we are in the business of getting your mind and body healthy, why not add some healthy food into that as well?  We love this salsa because it is so easy to make and uses all fresh ingredients.

It can be modified to add some more spiciness as well if you so desire, just throw in some jalapenos.
