Reinvent Meals With Specialty Salsa

By Enid Hinton


People are constantly looking for ways to make food healthier and the good news is that this can be done easily and without a major expense. Adding good flavor that is high in nutrients is better than some fancy marinade that is high in sodium and sugar. Specialty salsa lends itself to more than just Mexican cuisine as it can wake up all types of dishes.

People who really want to make the change should read on to find more ways to add different types of salsa to their food. These are free of fat, low in calories, and usually have little sodium. There is a misconception that salsa is either watery or is extremely hot. These days, there are many varieties that complement more than Mexican dishes.

While most think salsas are made of just tomatoes and peppers, there are also those made with beans, corn, fruit, and tomatillos. These are a member of the tomato family but green with a slightly different taste than its red cousin. They also use different types of peppers, which range from smoky to searing hot on the tongue.

One way that people are beginning to use this is on budget friendly classics like meatloaf and casserole. These economical recipes can be made from more than just meat and pork but now incorporate ground poultry. Adding salsa instead of gravy or meat-based sauce can bring a little excitement to meals.

Some like to eat skinless chicken but hate the fact that it can get dry after cooking. Topping with salsa or using it to make low calorie dips are wonderful ways to eat right. Many premium brands are made with garden fresh vegetables so this can add more nutrients to meals and excellent for those who are dieting.

Vegans and vegetarians can also use this to wake up main or side dishes like potatoes or rice. Starchy meals can be made colorful by adding a cup of this peppery condiment. Other ideas for use include bean dishes, hot and cold salads or anything that tastes bland without a lot of seasoning.

There are many salsa brands on the market but when using for more than dipping chips, it pays to be choosy. One way to separate the better product is to look at the container. Most are made from see through glass so the shopper can see what they are buying. Those made with a lot of tomato juice and few herbs may not work in the seasoning of dense vegetables and meats. While the price may be nice, thin salsa is often limited when it comes to meal preparation.

Choosing one that is rich with herbs, garlic and all things that are good make eating more fun. People who have little time for cooking at home want to have a healthy shortcut without having to break the bank. Meals are made special and cooking with salsa for breakfast, lunch, or dinner can present many possibilities for a nice spin on old classic meals. Some who make the change also say that replacing sugar laden or fattening sauces with salsa has helped them to lose weight.
