OK, here goes!  The first recipe I am blogging was chosen because my sister texted me from Sainsburys' today to get the recipe - we had it at a family weekend, and believe me, if she likes it then it must be delicious as she is a bit of a foodie!  In fact it went down well with everyone, including the children.

It is taken from DELIA SMITHS Winter Collection - I know, I've had it ages and it's a staple. 

It's the Salsa part of the Winter Black Bean Chilli recipe (ignore the chilli bit and just tuck into the salsa when Detoxing) I use it as a side salad or for lunch I mix with short grain brown rice and if I'm particularly hungry then I add tuna or salmon or smoked mackerel....

So (serves 4)

2 large firm tomatoes peeled, deeseeded and chopped (pour boiling water over toms and wait 1 min and the skins peel of easily)

1 ripe firm avocado, peeled and diced

1 small red onion peeled and diced

large handful of fresh coriander leaves, stalks removed

Juice of a lime and a few drops of Tabasco plus fresh black pepper.

Mix all together in a bowl and tuck in.  It will keep in the fridge and shouldn't go soggy if you make sure you peel and deseed the toms first.
