    CHUNKY TOMATO AVOCADO SALSA

 

A chunky, flavorful salsa, this recipe is great as a party snack or before-dinner appetizer served with tortilla chips (look for chips with no trans fats). It's also delicious on chicken soft tacos or a build-your-own taco salad.

3-4 tomatoes, diced

1 avocado, chopped

1 cup frozen white corn, thawed

¼ cup olives, sliced

½ green bell pepper, diced

½ small red onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

2 Tbsp fresh cilantro, snipped

1 Tbsp. lime juice

1 tsp Mrs. Dash’s garlic seasoning

1 tsp chili powder

½ tsp lemon pepper
