So, I tried this new recipe tonight, it is DELICIOUS! It was actually under a gluten free/diabetic recipe I found...so low in sugar and no gluten....but truly very easy and yummy!
Grilled 6 chicken breasts....with light salt and pepper. Made the mango salsa...I was out of the rice vinegar and used red wine vinegar...of course I didn't measure...(I have an issue with following recipes; like to add my own twist.) I also used green and yellow peppers, not just the green pepper in the salsa...so 1/2 of each of the peppers. We did grill the peppers for a few minutes first before making the salsa. I made white rice, instead of wild or brown...my son likes the white, but I would recommend the brown or wild rice. Fresh green beans; and a melon medley. It made for a great dinner in our back yard!!
