Grapefruit Salsa

  This will be the first of several fun salsa recipes I have. It is quick and easy to make and once you've tried it, see what variations you can create.

• 2 plum tomatoes, medium diced
• 1/2 a grapefruit, peeled, sectioned, and medium diced
• 1/2 cup medium diced sweet onion (or scallions, or a mixture of the two)
• 1/2 a red bell pepper, medium diced
• 1 jalapeno pepper, finely diced (I'll leave it up to you how much, if any, of the ribs and seeds you keep for heat. I usually clean out the seeds and leave some of the ribs.)
• 1/2 cup loosely packed, chopped cilantro
• 1tbsp light Agave syrup (you can substitute honey, but do yourself a favor and get some Agave syrup -- it's fantastic!)
• 1 tsp salt

 Place all ingredients in a mixing bowl and lightly toss to blend. Cover and refrigerate for several hours before using. It's great with chips, or as a topping for hot nachos, or as a side with a main course. We used it the other night as a side for blackened tuna steaks -- a super combination!
