Mango Pineapple Salsa

Mango Pineapple Salsa from 101 Cooking For Two
Wonderfully tasty and a great compliment to spicy foods. Just a little slicing and dicing and your there. Great for a party and friends.

I have been on a Mexican spree recently and this has been the main side dish and it is just great. This is another repost since the first post was several years ago and is buried in the first year of the blog with only a few hundred visits. It deserves much much more.

Grilled Peaches for Under 70 calories

A wonderfully quick and simple dish for your sweet tooth without guilt with under 70 calories per peach (two halves). I used Splenda to decease the  calories but even with sugar  you will only add 45 calories per peach.

I started to think of this after a post on Nibble Me This. It looked great but wasn't quite what I wanted to do. First, today is the first day of our new diet and the sugar syrup and ice cream just would not do today. Second, I wanted simpler. So I winged it. I just cut them in halve, oiled, grilled one side, flipped and topped with mixture of Splenda and cinnamon and cooked indirectly until soft (internal temp was 165).
