Sloppy Joe with Mango Salsa 

Submitted By: Naomi 

This makes for a nice "summery" lunch: "It is very flavorful! 
The salsa is even better if covered and chilled for a while, 
so the flavors can blend." 

Ingredients

1 NutriSystem Vegetarian Sloppy Joe (prepared as suggested) 
1/2 whole wheat pita 

Avocado/Mango/Jicama Salsa: 
1/8 (or one ounce) of fresh diced avocado 
1/6 (or about 1 ounce) of fresh ripe mango, diced small 
(could also use 1 ounce of minced pineapple in addition to the mango) 
1/4 cup finely diced or minced jicama 
3-4 teaspoons minced red or sweet onion 
2 teaspoons lime juice 
1 teaspoon pineapple juice (optional - can use if you don't 
add the actual pineapple) 
1/4 teaspoon minced hot pepper of choice (jalapeno or serrano, 
etc.) or to taste 
1/8 teaspoon of fresh minced garlic 
dash of salt 
dash of cumin 
1/2 to 1 teaspoon chopped cilantro, or to taste 

Directions

Warm the pita bread for 10 seconds or so in the microwave; stuff 
with prepared sloppy joe mix, and 1/2 the salsa. 

Serve the other half of the salsa on the side. Or, serve the sloppy 
joe on a bed of lettuce, top with the salsa, and a whole wheat pita 
on the side. Enjoy!
