About Sauce, salsa, ready-to-serve
Salsa is the bright, chunky tomato-based sauce of Mexican cooking — typically tomatoes, onions, chillies, lime and coriander, fresh or cooked. Spicy, tangy and refreshing, it's a dip for tortilla chips and a topping for tacos, eggs and just about anything that needs a lift.
It's one of the genuinely healthy condiments: low in calories and fat, built on vegetables, with vitamin C, vitamin A and antioxidants from the tomatoes and peppers. The main thing to watch is sodium in jarred versions, but as condiments go it's a nutritious one.
Flavorful, fresh and light, salsa adds a lot of taste for almost no calories — one of the rare 'sauces' you can be generous with, especially the fresh kind.
