I love making salsa, and often combine whatever I have on hand to make an appetizer no one can resist. This shrimp salsa is low-fat, gluten-free and perfect for low-carb diets, but you can switch it up and add black beans to boost the fiber, or roasted corn to add a touch of sweetness, and even avocado to add some healthy fats. Add more jalapeño to make it spicier and adjust the lime, cilantro and salt to suit your taste. You see where I'm going with this.... the possibilities are endless!

I found these great black bean chips called Beanitos that are high in fiber which makes you feel full longer, low-glycemic, gluten-free and are high in protein, 10 chips are 3 points plus. My husband and daughter love them with guacamole or salsa.

Ingredients:

* 16 oz cooked peeled shrimp, diced fine
* 4 vine ripe tomatoes, diced fine
* 6 tbsp red onion, finely diced
* 3 tbsp jalapenos, diced fine (more or less to taste)
* 2 tbsp minced cilantro
* 2 limes, juice of (or more to taste)
* 1/2 tsp kosher salt


Directions:

Combine diced onions, tomatoes, salt and lime juice in a non-reactive bowl and let it sit about 5 minutes. Combine the remaining ingredients in a large bowl, taste for salt and adjust as needed. Refrigerate and let the flavors combine at least an hour before serving.
