Chunky Grape Salsa

Concerned that your family isn’t getting enough fruits and veggies in their diet? Recent research from the Dietitians of Canada showed that almost 25 per cent of Canadians surveyed said they hadn’t consumed any fruits or vegetables the previous day. It can be hard to incorporate the up to 7 to 10 daily recommended servings of fruits and veggies into our diet, but it is possible. Try to get one dark green and one orange vegetable each day to help you get enough of the vitamin folate and vitamin A. There are different ways to serve fruit. A 250 mL serving of juice usually represents two full servings of fruits and vegetables, so enjoy a glass with breakfast or as a pick me up in the afternoon. Make popsicles using a flavourful and colourful juice, like Welch’s Grape Juice. Kids love the taste and the colour. Add in chunks of fruit for an added bonus. For a perfect after school snack try Chunky Grape Salsa. Everyone will love this modern take on an old favourite. It can be enjoyed with whole wheat chips, pita or as a side dish with fish or chicken.
