After an afternoon of peach picking, I needed to come up with healthy ways to enjoy all of our peaches. Salsa is a great treat because it is so versatile. It can be a simple, yet delicious condiment to chips. Or it can transform a grilled chicken breast into a satisfying dinner. The choice is […]

This is a delicious vegetarian meal. You can serve it as the main course, serve it over pasta, or serve it as an appetizer as a brushetta-like topping for delicious, crusty Italian bread.
