Pineapple Mango Salsa

-

As soon as the spring comes, I get excited for new salads and the refreshing summer fruits that are going to be coming into season. The other day my Whole Foods Market had a ton of these mangoes on sale and I bought a bunch. I made this pineapple mango salsa. I was going to put it over fish for dinner that night but it was so good, we ate it with lunch and it never made it to dinner! I guess that means I'll be making this again to try with my fish. This goes well over chicken or fish, or just as a side dish. I made half this batch with red onion and the other half without since my daughter doesn't like raw onions. I love red onions, but I was surprised that I liked the version without the onion a little better. Try it whichever way you like and leave a comment below and let us know which you prefer!
Ingredients

2 cups pineapple diced

optional addition:
1/2 red onion

Directions
Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix together. Serve right away or refrigerate overnight. I thought this tasted even better the next day!

Gluten Free Shrimp Spring Rolls with Soy Free Gyoza Sauce

I have always been kind of intimidated by spring roll wrappers. I thought they were very delicate and hard to work with so I just avoided them. Finally I decided to give them a try and I am so glad I did. Not only do they make a very healthy meal, but they are much more durable and easy to work with then I thought they would be. You can put almost any veggies you want in here, the possibilities are endless! Here is my version with shrimp and veggies with a homemade Gyoza sauce. This sauce is soy free but if you can eat soy you can replace the coconut aminos with soy sauce (use wheat free tamari if your gluten free). Coconut aminos are a great replacement for soy sauce in any recipe or on Sushi rolls too if you are soy free! This sauce taste just like the sauce you get from a Japanese restaurant with dumplings...yum :) For 8 rolls Ingredients for the rolls: shredded lettuce finely sliced carrot sticks finely sliced cucumber sticks 16 shrimp boiled and chopped into chunks 8 s

  After cooking pumpkin recipes pretty much from September until now, I am ready for my next favorite holiday treat - gingerbread! Jenni Hulet at The Urban Poser has done it again, as soon as I read this post about her gingerbread donuts I was off to the kitchen. These were very simple and absolutely delicious. It's a change from the traditional gingerbread cookie and is a perfect holiday treat. I followed this exact recipe, except I skipped beating the egg whites because I was short on time and she says they come fine without that step, but next time I make these I will try adding that step to see the difference.
