      This is a hard one, don't give up. Maybe someone will be able to tell you. Give it time.
      I have no idea how to make a lowcarb salsa...or any salsa for that matter. Hopefully someone else can tell you

        Hi Joy,

        This is one of my favorites. I have a couple more I'll see if I can ind.
        Advocado Salsa


        1 advocado, peeled and diced
        4 small tomato, diced
        1 small Red onion, diced
        1 green pepper, seeded and diced
        1 jalapeño, finely diced
        1 green chile, finely diced
        1 garlic clove, minced
        salt, to taste
        2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
        1 tablespoon olive oil
        4 drops tabasco sauce
        Combine the vegetables in a medium bowl. Mash the garlic with salt in a cup or small bowl. Add the vinegar, oil and Tabasco sauce. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss to combine the ingredients. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

        That even though I overeat in private, my excess poundage is there for all the world to see.

            Also Joy, Weekends are a little slow on here. But I noticed quite a few folks on here are up and on their computer around 4 or 5 in the morning. So I usually give it 24 hours if I'm looking for an answer I hope those recipes are what you are looking for.

                Real traditional salsa is naturally low carb. Don't overlook regular cookbooks and allrecipes.com I get most of my "low" carb recipes from regular cookbooks especially julia child, various french and mediteranian books. Salsa has always been just veggies and lime. The big companies just started adding sugar because it kept people buying and covered the bland taste of jared old veggies. onion, tomato, celantro and lime is the basic list for regular red salsa.

                  Pace chunky salsa is natural, no sugar and low carb (but still a tomato product, so has natural sugar). I buy it hotter than I normally like it to get more bang for my carb buck. You eat less that way. I've been using it through more than 100 pounds loss.
