Good salsa sure is a wonderful thing. I’m living in San Francisco now, and eating out is kind of pricey. I didn’t want to avoid eating out altogether, because eating out is a good opportunity to network with co-workers, and San Francisco offers some really good food. So I decided to eat as frugally as possible when I eat in, in order to compensate for eating out from time to time. I decided to eat a can of kidney beans in the morning, in order to get some good proteins and carbs, and then to eat whole-wheat pasta with tomato sauce for dinner. I tried to get my variety of vegetables in at lunch.

The concept was working pretty well, but I felt that the meals weren’t healthy enough–that I wasn’t getting enough variety of vegetables with my meals. While I was at Costco a couple of days ago, I found the solution: salsa. Adding some salsa to my beans in the morning gives me some extra veggies for breakfast, and replacing my tomato sauce with salsa definitely makes the meal more appetizing (and I would assume that organic salsa is healthier than tomato sauce).

So three cheers for Salsa. And may it always reign as the #1 condiment in the world (and not only because people like saying the word “salsa”).
