 This fruit salsa
is a delicious summertime treat. You can develop a real passion for this salsa,
since it is low in calories and very flavorful. There are no hard-and-fast rules in making
salsa. Add or delete ingredients according to your taste. Serve with corn chips (if you eat
too many corn chips, then it is not low in calories!) This salsa is also
great on fish.
