I never get bored of the avocado, but it definitely helps to have an arsenal of recipes that innovate the traditional guacamole. This salsa incorporates grapefruit into the mix. It’s a delicious salsa that accompanies a green leaf salad or baked salmon. Enjoy!

Why this glows:

Grapefruit: is high in enzymes that burn fat, has a high water content, helps shed pounds, prevents arthritis, works as an antiseptic, lowers cholesterol levels, prevents cancer with its antioxidant compound naringenin, treats cold and fever, dissolves gallstones, boosts immunity, promotes better digestion, and contributes to healthy and smooth skin.
