Adding fruits to a salsa is a great way to add a burst of flavor and freshness into a dish. You will need a mango, shallots or onion, juice from a lemon, chopped spinach, sugar, salt and pepper. You can get creative with this recipe and add in some Jalapeno, chopped tomatoes, cilantro or your favorite salsa add-ins.

I personally love making a Crema dressing for tacos, Taquitos, wraps and of course, fajitas! We’ve used sour cream in this crema for a healthy alternative. For this crema all you need is sour cream, lemon juice, taco seasoning, water, minced garlic, salt and pepper. This recipe is so good, it almost taste like a homemade ranch with a kick! You can substitute a lime for the lemon, add in some hot sauce or your favorite seasonings!
