Peach Bruschetta and Watermelon Salsa

Tomorrow is the Fourth of July!! What are you doing to celebrate?? It is Kim's birthday tomorrow, so I'm sure she will be celebrating in style. I will be at work, since we celebrated Canada Day on Monday.  I do miss the Fourth of July though - BBQs, pool parties, fireworks, and red, white, and blue everything.

Well, I want you to have a fun, safe, and dare I say, healthy, day tomorrow!  So we have two clean and delicious salsas / bruschettas for you to take to those Independence Day parties or to take to any summer celebration. These are full of juicy, fresh fruit.  They are packed with flavor and nutrients.  You could throw them on chicken, fish, salad, or scoop them up with some baked tortilla chips.  Trust me when I say that these are awesome!
