MAKES 6 SERVINGSHG Tip:The great thing about this recipe is that it is easy to tweak it to suit your taste buds! Like tomato-based salsa? Add a cup of tomatoes! Like an even fruitier topping for your chicken or fish? Try adding kiwi or honeydew melon!Pick Me! Pick Me!How to pick the best fruit. .Pineapple—Pineapples should be brightly colored with fresh-looking, deep green leaves, and should be free of bruises and moldy spots (ew!). They should also have a sweet smell at the stem. FYI, a ripe, uncut pineapple will last for about 4 days at room temperature or in the fridge.Apples—Color has nothing to do with how ripe or unripe an apple is. Bruise-free apples are best. Also, don't wash apples until you're about to eat them. Believe it or not, washing apples makes them spoil faster.Peaches—Choose a peach with an orangy-red color, as opposed to one with a yellowish hue. If you can gently squeeze the peach without breaking the skin, it is ripe and ready to eat. If you choose a hard peach, it will ripen in a few days. And remember, peaches bruise super-easily, so take special care when handling them.Avocado—Yep, avocado is a fruit. When looking to choose a ripe avocado, gently squeeze it. There should be a little bit of give. If you squeeze it and end up with a handful of guacamole, your bumpy friend is over-ripe! chapter tenoven lovin'baked goods and other treatsno-guilt desserts? sweet!Just in case there weren't enough sweet treats for you in the chocolate and fruit chapters, here are tons of others.
