    What's Great About It:

    Strawberry salsa is a fresh twist on a classic. Sweet, juicy berries meet zesty lime, herbs, and a little heat for the perfect balance of flavours. If you are low on spices and time, simply purchase a taco mix pack from your local grocery store to season the chicken with.
