This recipe was taste tested and Kid Kritics Approved at HealthBarn USA which was founded by another Family Food Expert, Stacey Antine, MS, RD!  This salsa and 2 other recipes were taste tested on the same day (Veggie Stix Nachos and Fast Black Bean Dip).  They were such a hit that parents asked for the recipes so they could make them at home!  We hope you like them too.
