By Vanessa Vickery
The Salsa is a great mix of smooth, sweet flavours (thanks to the fruit) and a bit of bite (thanks to the red chili, red onion, lemon and lime juices). The result is a fantastically fresh way to enjoy pork, and it’s healthy enough to enjoy simply with my recipe below, or accompanied by a side salad. I highly recommend my Apple, Avocado, Cranberry & Walnut Salad or Quinoa Salad with Pumpkin, Avocado & Tomato.
